Corning Hiking Club
Sunday 12/03/06

Forgot the camera this trip! Although solo, I had a great hike: started out with the intentions of walking the train tracks toward Beaver Dams (along w/ some parallel truck routes and... who knows what else is back there?) but got sidetracked when I spotted some 2x4's on the river's edge. I ended up carrying them to a spot I could later get to w/ my car and continued on going west. I walked along the river and under the overpasses until a big culvert, too deep to easily cross, made me head North and come out near Autozone/Wendy's.

It was a beautiful and crisp morning. It was cold enough that the mud was frozen, but not fully solid. I wore a bunch of layers and was actually a little hot for the 2nd half of the walk.

Along the walk I was noticing (again) the ridge that runs across the steep cliff-face, overlooking the city from the West Side. If I can figure out where to pick it up, that would be one of Corning's best hikes! Does anybody know where it begins/ends/traverses?
