The Crossings of Colonie

Date visited: 7/9/2022

Looking at these pictures, it looks like we went to five different places. There are numerous varied landscapes here on these really interesting trails. We have some wide open fields, a busy stretch near a shopping area, a tree maze, a stretch that passes some farm land with cows grazing, and some wooded sections, along with a cool long bridge over some marsh land. The trails are mostly paved, and are very flat. We walked four miles here. My favorite part was when the trails passed by the small body of water that was named on my map, "The Lake". There is one picture of the dogs in front of the lake that featured ducks, geese, a turtle and even a visible fish in the water! We've been having a stretch of great weather lately, and this was no different. It was in the upper 70's here with low humidity. It is a good thing too, because with the lack of shade on much of these trails, this would have been a no-go if it was any warmer. This was a very fun visit on a beautiful day!

Old Military Crossing Loudon's Ford

Date visited: 7/4/2023

This is a fishing area next to a hydro-electirc plant. It looked like a good place to take a couple pictures and to let the dogs cool off in the water on a hot day.
