DescOutdoor Program Centers - The AMC manages more than 40 outdoor program centers and backcountry facilities, including lodges, mountain huts, full-service camps, cabins, shelters and campgrounds. These AMC facilities serve as a base for 4-season recreational activities, nature and environmental education courses, programs, scientific research, outdoor artistic pursuits, and other conservation-related activities. Visitors and overnight guests enjoy a broad range of walk-on programs, guided naturalist activities, outdoor recreational safety and skill building workshops, and backcountry activities to choose from. AMC facilities are managed to reduce environmental impact by providing environmentally sensitive septic systems, composting, public *Refer to Schedule O, Page 40 for Continuation*Outdoor Program Centers (Continued):drinking water, and overnight accommodations (some near treeline and in sensitive alpine areas) in areas where camping would have severe effects on the alpine plant life. AMC facilities provide information and education on the local environment, recreational opportunities, outdoor safety, trails, and emergency shelter. AMC staff also participates in search-and-rescue efforts throughout the White Mountains of NH and other regions. In 2013, AMC provided more than 162,000 overnight guest accommodations at its facilities and information and other services to more than 2,000,000 visitors.Desc

DescConservation Research and Policy - The AMC actively promotes the protection, enjoyment and understanding of the mountains, forests, waters and trails of the Appalachian region including critical areas of the four-state Northern Forest, the Mid-Atlantic Highlands of PA, NJ, NY, and CT, and Maine's 100-Mile Wilderness region. The AMC's Research and Policy Program conducts analyses of natural ecosystems to guide its efforts to protect these areas. This includes studying changes in land cover and land use and the impact on ecological and recreational resources; monitoring air quality and climate change impacts on Northeastern mountain ecosystems; analyzing in-stream flow criteria and hydroelectric dam operation impacts on river ecosystems and*Refer to Schedule O, Pages 40-41 for Continuation*Conservation Research and Policy (Continued):recreational resources; developing methods to reduce recreational user impacts on the region's mountains; and studying the benefits and impacts of different transportation options and energy sources, including renewable energy, on the ecosystems of concern to the AMC. Achievements are exemplified by the development and successful implementation of the recovery plan for an alpine plant formerly listed on the federal endangered species list, publication of a national award winning "Ecological Atlas of the Upper Androscoggin Watershed", adoption by states of elements of AMC's wind power siting guidelines and AMC's successful citizen science mountain monitoring program, Mountain Watch.The AMC's Research and Policy program also works with conservation partners and local communities to build grassroots support for priority conservation projects. The Research and Policy Program participates in and comments on formal resource management programs and decisions at the local, state, and federal level; consults with industry and land owners to find equitable solutions to environmental problems; advocates for state and federal land protection, clean air and energy policies, and trails funding, and facilitates member and public participation in local, state and federal environmental issues and policy.Desc

Desc1. Education Program - The AMC works with approximately 50,000 young people each year through guided and self-guided programs designed to make the outdoors and the environment accessible and meaningful to youth from all socioeconomic backgrounds. The programs range from overnight school programs (grades 4-12); walk-on activities offered to families coming through AMC's huts and lodges, weekend long skill based trainings, to 1-3 week outdoor summer adventures for teens. Guided programs include our A Mountain Classroom, Teen Wilderness Adventures, Youth Opportunities, Leadership Training, and destination-based naturalist programs. AMC has recently launched a new program called Outdoors Rx which gives healthcare professionals the dedicated resources for prescribing regular outdoor physical activity to children at risk of obesity and other health issues. Through intensive, hands-on training, participants learn how to enjoy the outdoors and minimize their impact in the backcountry. AMC is a national provider of Master Educator training in Leave No Trace principles. AMC serves young people in urban and rural areas through its Youth Opportunities Program by training leaders in various youth agencies located in those regions.2. Trails Program - AMC staff and over 4,000 volunteers are engaged in on-the-ground recreation management and trail maintenance on 1,800 miles of trails, including over 300 miles of the Appalachian National Scenic Trail (AT) in five states. Many of these trails are on public lands, including the White Mountain National Forest, Delaware Water Gap National Recreation Area, Acadia National Park, and state parks throughout the region. AMC offers a broad range of trail volunteer opportunities, including an adopt-a-trail program, teen trail crew programs, and Volunteer Vacations for adults interesting in giving back through trail stewardship. AMC Alpine Stewards educate hikers on how to care for fragile alpine areas. AMC is collaboratively planning a trail network that will protect and connect the ecological, historic and recreational assets of the Pennsylvania Highlands and create "close-to-home" outdoor recreational opportunities. The Pennsylvania Highlands Trail Network will extend the Highlands Trail (currently 130 miles in New York and New Jersey) along the length of the Pennsylvania Highlands, from the Delaware River at Rieglesville, PA south to the Maryland border in south-central PA. Encompassing roughly 1.9 million acres, the Pennsylvania Highlands includes portions of 13 counties. The Appalachian Mountain Club and The Trustees of Reservations are collaborating to lead the Bay Circuit Alliance in the completion, enhancement, and long-term care of the 200-mile Bay Circuit Trail and Greenway. Our goal is to promote the trail as a vital resource for walking, hiking, and biking for the 4 million people who live in the Greater Boston area. The Bay Circuit Alliance is a collaboration of more than 50 cities, towns, and land trusts, as well as hundreds of dedicated volunteers, working in support of the Bay Circuit. Under this collaboration, AMC's primary responsibility will be to support the Trails Management Advisory Committee, while The Trustees will focus on land protection coordination and planning. Both organizations will work with the Alliance to promote the Bay Circuit as a close-to-home recreational resource and raise funds to ensure the long term future of the trail and greenway. As Congressionally designated stewards of the New England National Scenic Trail (NET), which runs from the New Hampshire border to Long Island Sound, AMC and the Connecticut Forest and Parks Association collaborate on protecting and enhancing recreational opportunities on the NET. 3. Publications/Communications - Through a variety of publications, the AMC encourages safe and responsible outdoor recreation and stewardship of the region's natural resources. AMC's member magazine, journal, books, and maps seek to inspire the public to get outdoors in all four seasons. Each publication also stresses safety and stewardship and encourages volunteerism. AMC's magazine, AMC Outdoors, features recreation and conservation news around the Northeast, and offers columns on outdoor skills, gear, fitness and nutrition, and natural history, as well as features on issues such as climate change, ecology, and the challenges of getting young people outdoors. AMC's website (www.outdoors.org) is an online resource for members and non-members seeking the latest local outdoor trips, trip ideas, backcountry conditions, and volunteer opportunities. AMC's Appalachia, published biannually since 1876, is the longest running journal on mountaineering and conservation. AMC Books publishes a variety of recreation guides on walking, hiking, biking, skiing, canoeing, kayaking and other outdoor activities in our region including the White Mountain Guide -- the premier hiking guide for New Hampshire's White Mountains for over 100 years. AMC's On-Line Guide is a leading on-line interactive mapping tool featuring comprehensive trail information, customize route building functionality and the ability to share trip reports and current trail conditions.Desc

Part III, Line 1a:AMC Library & Archive Collection: Collection items are artifacts related to the historical programs of the AMC, which are catalogued and preserved for educational and research purposes. No collection items were capitalized as of December 31, 2013 and 2012.
Part III, Line 4:The AMC Library & Archives have been an integral part of the AMC since the Club's founding year. They anchor a remarkable landscape in which the past lies alongside the present and future of the Club and the Northeast outdoors. The Library's collection consists of over 3,000 titles. It represents one of the most extensive outdoor recreation book collections in the Northeast and counts among its holdings works on the history of mountaineering, early climbing expeditions, and early explorations. The book collection also contains a vast amount of background information on environmental issues and outdoor activities. At the center of the historical book collection is the Kilbourne Collection of over 500 books on the White Mountains of New Hampshire, one of the largest White Mountain rare book collections in the world. Other mountain areas of the Northeast are also well documented. The library has no less than 22 titles on Mount Katahdin alone! The Archive's collection consists of meeting minutes, annual reports, AMC bulletins and journals, scrapbooks, climbing journals, manuscripts, summit registers, photographic works, films, memorabilia, and maps. Logbooks that are no longer sound enough to reside in AMC's historic White Mountain huts can be found here, recording the thoughts and feelings of mountain travelers from decades past. The Archives are particularly rich in visual images, with well over 20,000 images covering the 1870's to the present. The library owns an extensive collection of lantern slides documenting the AMC's early history, and hundreds of postcards and stereograph cards with views of the mountains of the Northeast. The Frederick Endicott and Ralph C. Larrabee photo collections contain hundreds of photographs by these two local photographers of the White Mountains and Adirondacks taken between 1895 and 1935. The historic map collection consists of cartographer Edward G. Chamberlain's detailed maps and itineraries documenting AMC outings from 1876 to 1935. Other maps include contemporary and historic maps of the Northeast, and those published in conjunction with our many guidebooks. The Library & Archives are strongly linked to the AMC's mission. They help to build awareness of AMC through the use of the club's images and information in a wide range of publications. The Library & Archives support the Communications Department, which promotes the club through its magazine, journal, website and marketing campaigns. The long history of the organization that is housed by the Library & Archives lends credibility and understanding to the Club's current organization and its initiatives.
Part V, Line 4:The purpose of the AMC's endowment funds is to serve as a perpetual source of financial support for the Club's programs and activities. The financial goal of these funds is to preserve their purchasing power by investing in a diverse portfolio of equity and fixed income securities while, at the same time, providing a reasonable level of annual cash flow to the Club. Permanently restricted endowment funds are subject to donor stipulations requiring such gifts be invested in perpetuity and only the income earned on the invested gifts can be expended. Use of term endowments proceeds are limited to either specific program activities or designated periods of time as stipulated by the donor. Board designated endowment funds, commonly known as unrestricted endowments, can only be expended pursuant to approval of AMC's Board of Directors.
Part X, Line 2:In determining the recognition of uncertain tax positions, the AMC recognizes the financial statement impact of a tax position when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination by a taxing authority. As of December 31, 2013, the AMC has no uncertain tax positions that qualify for either recognition or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.
Part XI, Line 2d - Other Adjustments:AMC Maine Woods, Inc. Program Activities 672,756.
