The Back 9 Walking Trail

Several months ago the Village and the Town joined forces to blaze a walking trail  behind the Village Golf Course.  The Town and Village applied for and just recently received grant money for this project.  The trail is still a little rough but has a lot of potential.  I assume the grant money will be used to develop this trail starting sometime this spring.  I only hope that they do not go in and just start whacking down trees.  Some of the areas need to have brush and other crap removed that has been dumped there over the years.  I also hope that it might be designated for cross country, snow shoe, and foot traffic only.

It would make a nice cross country Go-Kart track...

Years ago when my ex and I owned 7 Gables he cut a swath through the woods all the way to Carnegie Bay. We enjoyed many many wonderful days of skiing back there, enjoying nature, the wildlife and the calm quiet moments of peace while getting a hell of a workout.I too hope they just don't whack away, it would be a shame to ruin something so beautiful. It was like our own private getaway,just you and nature!
