One of my great fellow rangers! Chappy!
DEC is proud to observe #HispanicHeritageMonth in honor of the history, culture and influence of past generations of those with Hispanic origin. DEC's Michael Chappell talks about his work as a Forest Ranger and his Hispanic Heritage.

While this year's spike in use is more than last year we have been on an upward trend for a decade or more. It's not a "one off" because of Covid. How about #AddNYSRangers to protect the resource and those using the land?
With the recent increase in outdoor recreation this summer, the #Adirondacks and #Catskills have seen record numbers of visitors. Respect our natural resources, & DEC employees. If you witness harassment, call 1-877-457-5680 or report online: on.ny.gov/33H7GzF
