Re the silvery foil-like material, in 1966 I found some of this stuff
on the side of a remote mountain in the Adirondacks. Planes from Griffiss
(and elsewhere) have been training over the Adirondacks--and making lots
of intrusive, annoying noise--for decades.

                          /  "Few fully understand what the Adirondack
    Philip G. Terrie      \  wilderness really is. It is a mystery even to
American Culture Studies  /  those who have crossed and recrossed it by boats
Bowling Green State Univ. \  along its avenues, the lakes; and on foot
     (419) 372-8886       /  through its vast and silent recesses."
                          \                     --Verplanck Colvin, 1874
