HIKE — Erie County Forestry Trails — 3/14/20

Our cheery group of 7 fit hikers greeted each other with elbow bumps and thoroughly enjoyed 5 miles of rolling terrain and scenic bridges at this WNY gem. We savored virus-free fresh crisp air and early spring trail conditions with traces of snow and the sun peeking out at times to generate some Vitamin D production. We hiked both the Silent Wood and Old Scarbuck trails, plus the extra loop that begins after crossing ‘A Bridge Too Far’.

During our pre-hike 2 days earlier, the Sugar Shanty was operational and we tasted and purchased fresh maple syrup…. Talk about buying local!

 

Happy Trails!
