840 Trail was deemed too crowded to attempt with COVID-19 still creating havoc, so this hike was changed to the old Erie Canal Trail out of Oriskany trailhead on Rte. 69. The group was full of exuberance to have such a nice – albeit humid – day and since we took up almost the whole parking area, we didn’t see many others on the trail. We walked along enjoying the birds, turtles and plants. No one felt like stopping afterwards, except Margaret who really wanted her ice cream! Thanks Margaret for co-leading – glad you could make it (inside joke).
