Upcoming adventures

Pharsalia Woods Lean-To Hike

  • 9 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Sunday, March 30
  • Norwich, $20

We will hike to one of the best maintained lean-to shelters along the Finger Lakes trail.
The warmth and crackle of a small fire allows us to toasted marshmallows and make
s’mores during our lunch break. Pack a lunch and a water bottle. Dress in non-cotton
base layers. Wear synthetic socks, jacket, hat, gloves and bring a day pack. Wear
sturdy winter boots. This will be a moderately paced 4.5 mile loop hike over rolling
terrain (no major mountains to climb!)

Trail Work Service Day Hike

  • 9 a.m. – 4:30 p.m. Sunday, April 6
  • FREE

The Outdoor Pursuits program cares for a portion of the Finger Lakes trail (FLT) on the western edge of the Catskills. Join us as we work our way along a 5-mile stretch of trail with many stops to remove any fallen limbs from heavy winter snows, use shovels to divert water and move rocks to create paths through mud! This is a work day rather than a continuous jaunt through the forest. It involves work gloves, dirt and hand tools. We think it’s the best kind of fun. Notes will be made for future projects. Terrain (no major mountains to climb!)
