North Country Trail in New York- Finger Lakes Trail

OOPS! I wanted to see the New York links.


[Snyder Hill view]
Western New York was carved by glaciers into wonderful rolling hills. This is a view from Snyder Hill across the Tioghnioga River in April 1997. Things were just beginning to green up.


[runoff creek]



Spring rains create little intermittant streams on every hillside. The litter is still last year's brown leaves, but deep green hemlock overhangs and punctuates every gorge.


[classic ford]

How badly have you longed for a classic Ford truck? A morning of steady rain with no leafy canopy for protection made us mighty glad to find this one. My environmental concerns were of lower priority than a semi-dry rest stop that day. Marie & Chips certainly seem appreciative!

This blue morning in Hoxie Gorge State Forest will be one of my long-cherished memories of New York hikes.
