	Forest Magazine Article: Appalachian Mountain Club
		The club was formed in 1876 by Bostonians who, responding to the romanticism of nature that was in vogue then, had taken to traveling north—on train tracks laid to carry logs south—to hike the Whites, New England’s highest range and the only one with extensive area above treeline.
		The AMC was not at the forefront of this initiative—which essentially sought to slow development of the entire area.
		As for the claim that the club was improperly pushing its environmental agenda, Hepp noted that as long as the AMC didn’t violate IRS limitations on the lobbying activities of nonprofit organizations, the group could say whatever it wanted in its programs.

		This time, however, several vociferous critics of the organization, led by a former AMC employee named Mike Waddell, and David Guernsey, an activist from Maine, are accusing the AMC of using the huts to commit misdeeds, both environmental and political.
		Though the AMC has been active in the White Mountains since 1876 and played key role in pushing the Weeks Act, the legislation that created the White Mountain National Forest in the early 1900s, the Club made itself felt mainly as a recreational group.
		Meanwhile, the Club has taken pains to educate its employees about the importance of the local forest-based economy - a clear sign that the AMC is trying to balance advocacy and recreational activities more carefully.
