This Sunday we will hike the maintenance trails in High Tor WMA off Bassett and Brink Hill Rds. Naples.
The footing is easy, along dirt tracks with grass that has recently been rough mown. There are a few slow rise hills. We will pass 4 ponds along the way where ducks and turtles have been spotted.
Let’s all meet at the Bassett Rd parking area at 3:45pm to leave a few cars. The remaining cars will then proceed to Brink Hill Rd maintenance trail parking lot.
Please remember to spray for ticks.
CLIMBERS will leave from Brink Hill Rd, staying right at the V, turning left at the intersection of the main trail then take the sharp left maintenance road to return to Brink Hill. Maps will be available. This route will probably exceed the 2 hours unless Char is setting the pace:~).
TOURISTS will also leave Brink Hill, stay right at the V, past the ponds to the main intersection. Time permitting, we will visit the Canandaigua Lake overlook, backtrack, then finish the hike along the maintenance road to Bassett parking.
NATURALISTS, should we have at least 2, will walk in from Brink parking, visit the ponds and retrace their steps back to the parking area.
