EoK Snow Hike

I was finally feeling better after my spell with COVID so I went on an afternoon hike East of Keeney.

I went in at Heritage Drive and hiked the entire parcel south of Howe. Lots of folks have been using the trails as well as a dirt biker.

Snowshoeing after the big storm

It is so nice to have a forest and cool trails on my property - especially after a huge snowstorm where I can snowshoe!

From my front yard, looking westward on Hopewell....

Woo Eee - Back at the Valley!

Since I was down in Stamford for a musical event - I couldn't resist stopping at Trumbull on the way back. Its been a couple of years since I rode here and it was a thrill to revisit this spectacular spot.

I was bikeless (for a change) and after parking at the Whitney Ave lot, I hiked in through the super rugged north end (Indian Ledges). It never disappoints!

Of course - Copper Creek!

Bummer - the trail I built a few years back - no longer exists! Huge trees have obliterated it :-(

It was late afternoon and the sun was going down. Here Kevin and I are heading to Turtle Rock.

Another bummer - the sunken boardwalk - man there's a lot of water here now...

Ah... but the rest of the park still has all those rugged granite outcroppings and cliffs

Could resist this perfect sun placement - It felt like a Druid moment!

Yep - I of course never rode it but the hard core riders I knew did! Yikes!

Ages ago I did ride down this (hugging the cliffs) but sadly its all overgrown now

A nostalgic visit to Woodway Park

On the way back from a musical event in Stamford  - I drove by my old neighborhood and did a short hike around Woodway Park. It was nice to see the Town finally put a sign up. It also appears that the ATV crowd finally stop crapping up this place but sadly all the trails I built have not been maintained and are barely still visible :-(
