Hike Madison County, NY: Muller Hill State Forest
http://hikemadisoncounty.blogspot.com/2011/12/muller-hill-state-forest.html
Hike Madison County, NY. Monday, December 26, 2011. Muller Hill State Forest. And for Christmas I was lucky enough to receive a set of Snowshoes. What better time to break them in than today! But if you're reading this from Central New York, you probably are thinking.where is there snow? After some difficulty I find the trailhead to my planned loop snowhike (I'm claiming that term by the way! Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Follow my Blog with Email.

Hike Madison County, NY: Stony Pond State Forest
http://hikemadisoncounty.blogspot.com/2011/06/stony-pond-state-forest.html
Hike Madison County, NY. Thursday, June 30, 2011. Stony Pond State Forest. That brings me to today. I figured it's about time to actually start hiking trails in Madison County, as my blog title states, so I decided on Stony Pond State Forest in Erieville, and headed out at 8am this morning. The forecast was for sunny skies and temps to hit the mid 70's, sounds like perfection! Oh well, a quick laugh, a check off my trail map (thanks CNYhiking.com) and off we went, again. As I stopped to look out on the w...

Hike Madison County, NY. Monday, May 2, 2011. Clark Reservation.finally back at it! Here I am trying to start this whole hiking habit, and I pick the wettest April on Record in Syracuse to start! So its been a few weeks since I last got out on the trails, and yes I understand that a true outdoorsman hikes in all weather conditions, but I'm not there yet. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Hike Madison County, NY: Cascade & Porter Mountains - Adirondack High Peaks
http://hikemadisoncounty.blogspot.com/2011/11/cascade-porter-mountains-adirondack.html
Hike Madison County, NY. Sunday, November 6, 2011. Cascade and Porter Mountains - Adirondack High Peaks. Turned the volume up this weekend! I've spent so much time researching hikes in and around Madison County that I've also been turned on to some great regional hiking destinations. The Finger Lakes Trail system, North Country Trail, the Catskills, and of course The Adirondacks. So, I figure a tremendous lifelong challenge/goal for myself is to climb the Adirondack 46 (peaks over 4,000 feet). Im thinkin...

Hike Madison County, NY: Pratts Falls County Park
http://hikemadisoncounty.blogspot.com/2011/06/pratts-falls-county-park.html
Hike Madison County, NY. Saturday, June 11, 2011. Pratts Falls County Park. Yesterday was the last day of classes at the high school, and that meant I could leave as soon as the school day ended. And with perfect weather and a free afternoon, I thought the perfect way to celebrate the end of my work year would be to go on a new hike! Too bad I had just seen grand Chittenango Falls a week before, but this smaller Falls was beautiful from down below. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Follow my Blog with ...

Hike Madison County, NY: DeRuyter State Forest
http://hikemadisoncounty.blogspot.com/2011/12/deruyter-state-forest.html
Hike Madison County, NY. Wednesday, December 28, 2011. With the whole week off, I need to occupy myself somehow, right? So why not take the snowshoes out again for a 2nd straight day? Whatever, all I'm trying to say is I'm quickly becoming enamored with the forests in the area. So my first 2 attempts to ascend the DeRuyter Forest access roads are met with failure. The seasonal roads are not maintained, and my new SUV isn't 4 wheel drive. What was I thinking? A quick text to Nat to let her know I've made ...

Hike Madison County, NY: Morgan Hill State Forest
http://hikemadisoncounty.blogspot.com/2011/10/morgan-hill-state-forest.html
Hike Madison County, NY. Sunday, October 30, 2011. Morgan Hill State Forest. We continued, dodging the mud spots as best we could (got some bushwhacking in today! The trail, marked with Blue NCT blazes, followed along the elevated banks of the stream for the next mile. It was without doubt the most pleasant part of today's hike. The scenery was gorgeous, the air was clean and cool, and we were deep in a forest completely alone. Hiking has become an amazing stress reducer. Oh no I thought.hypothermia!

Hike Madison County, NY: January 2012
http://hikemadisoncounty.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Hike Madison County, NY. Tuesday, January 17, 2012. Maxon Creek State Forest. Final Score.Pease Hill 1 - Hiked by Mike - 0. That's the tally from today's Snike into Maxon Creek State Forest in Cuyler, NY. My attempt to summit Pease Hill (Elev. 1907') failed for 2 main reasons. One wimpy, one smart. First the wimpy. The damn thing was STEEP! I realized, even a failed hike still puts me in beautiful nature. Which is just great! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Follow my Blog with Email.
