Hike # 8-Mianus River Gorge Preserve

Mianus River Gorge Preserve-First Land Project of the Nature Conservancy and First National Natural History Landmark-Who knew...just half an hour away is a great hiking area with an important history.  Well marked, smooth trails with very manageable ups and downs. We took the full 2 1/2 hour hike ending at the reservoir which was very low due to lack of rain but still a pretty sight.

Hike # 7-Going Local

After our spectacular hike in NH last weekend, some time and weather constraints has us go local this weekend.  After miserable muggy weather and rain, today was lovely and we went to Devil's Den in
Weston for a nice close by hike.  This makes 7 for 7 weekends of hiking.  Hope we are able to continue.
