Mar 29 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm
Join us March 29th to hike on part of the Bristol Branch of the Finger Lakes Trail located at 6888 West Hollow Rd, South Bristol. This section of the FLT leads up to Gannett Hill, including woods, boardwalk, a pond and a creek half way up. This will be an out and back hike.
Map showing trail from Gannett Hill to CR 33Please arrive 1:45pm to sign in, get directions and be in the group photo.

We will stage a couple of cars for the ride back to the rest of the cars.
Tourists: The Tourists will follow the climbers for an hour or to the highest point, and then will return to the cars for about a 3.4 mile hike.

About 0.2 miles past the register, the blue trail on the right will take the Naturalists to the Beaver Pond Lean-to (with an outhouse). They may want to spend more time investigating the pond, creek and perhaps find the old cabin. They will also return to the cars the same way they came to the pond.

One thought on “Calendar”

  1. Looking for brochure.or mailing list so I can receive it in the mail.
    Nothing opens up for mailing list.
    There’s all kinds of very bizarre ads and post for viagra and other drugs above on calender page.
    Please let me know if there’s a brochure available
