Bear Slides to Gay Pond
Glens Falls-Saratoga Chapter
Let's go on an amazing waterfall hike in the spring, when everything is thawing out! We will hike approximately a half mile on the left side of the Bear Slides to our first destination of the waterfall! It'll be a great opportunity for photos, and depending on the crossing at the beaver dam up top, we might head over to Gay Pond. If we make it to Gay Pond, the trip is approximately 7 miles round trip, but otherwise it'll be an easy walk in the park with other cool stuff to see and only around 2.5 miles. You may need to pack snowshoes, but otherwise you'll definitely need to pack microspikes! We will meet at the Exit 18 park and ride next to the EMS building at 8:00am.

Grace Peak (East Dix) via Spotted Mountain Hike/Bushwhack

From Route 73, this route generally follows the South Fork of the Boquet River and along the exposed mountain ridge to Spotted Mountain and Grace Peak, providing excellent views. The South Fork of the Boquet River can be found along Rt 73 just after the Route 9 intersection where there is a small pull-off on the left to park. The route starts on the left side of the parking area along a steep bank, generally following the river although often not in sight until the herd path returns and we follow it a short distance to a fork, where we'll go in-between the two river branches and head west to a ridge and up a few scrambles to Elizabethtown #4 and mostly open ridgeline created by the Great Fire of 1903. Continuing along the ridge in a south/southwest direction we'll reach Spotted Mountain and more open views, and continue along the ridge to our final destination, Grace Peak (East Dix). There are some spots of very thick Balsam along the way, but also many open areas with excellent open views. On our return rout…

Tongue Range - Trail Work
Glens Falls-Saratoga Chapter
This is the annual trail work day that the chapter has done for many years, usually led by Tom Ellis. This year I'm helping Tom out. I'm hoping, if we get enough people, to split into 2 groups, and going from each end and meeting at the lean-to. That way, we automatically spot cars, everyone gets to participate, and only the Clay Meadow group has to hike the whole distance. We also might send a fast group out to Deer Leap. We pretty much have enough tools, but if you have a good prunning saw, loppers, or hand prunners, it wouldn't hurt to bring them. We are mainly clearing blowdown, but also a little bit of water bar cleaning, and side cutting. No experience necessary, we will teach you. We'll meet at Panera Bread at 9 am.

Genesee Valley Chapter
This trip was a lot of fun last year!!! It is weather dependent. On Saturday we will be paddling a section of the creek that is beautiful and not the white water that is associated with "Pine Creek". Last year the water was high enough, we did not have to deal with rocks but at different water levels that can be an issue. You will NOT want to bring your lightweight kevlar boats!!! If the water levels are not good, there is a plan B - to paddle nearby lakes.
,
If folks want to stay and paddle Sunday there are a number of options. Scott Lee can help folks paddle through the more aggressive areas of the creek (in boats, rafts etc(rentals). There are lovely hiking and biking trails if you choose not to paddle or other places to paddle nearby. Sunday is NOT an ADK event!!

Some folks drove down Saturday morning last year (about 1 1/2 to 2 hour drive), some rented an air b&b and I think some stayed in motel. Camping is an option also but chilly!!

Our first paddle this season will be on the West River to the Heron rookery and back. We never know how many nests we will see, but it is a lovely paddle. We'll paddle out to the rookery, watch the heron quietly then on our return we'll stop for snacks and drinks.
SunnySide Rd is off Rt 245 out of Naples. At Bob/Ruth's restaurant, turn left onto Rt 245. Go past the DEC parking on the left (fishing access) and turn left at next corner. There is a small parking area, we can double or triple up parking there. You can also park along the road. There is a short carry to the put in.

This is a "casual" paddle - We can take our time and enjoy the scenery!!

We'll put our boats in at LaSalle Park (across from Baycreek Paddlers) and paddle up into the creek for an hour. We'll stop for a snack then return to our launch site. This is a "one boat at a time launch site" so we'll help each other and try to quickly launch the boats. Please be “on the water” for a 10:00 start.
Bring: your PFD, boating supplies, sunscreen, water, snacks. You might want to wear shoes or footwear that can get wet or muddy. The put in can be muddy and slippery. This is a two hour paddle....We should be back to the launch about noon. Quite often folks bring a lunch to eat at the picnic tables there at the park. Plan to sign a liability waiver prior to the start of the paddle.
