A New Hike, Bike, and Ski Trail
in Old Forge
There's a new trail that takes you from the village of Old Forge (trail head just behind the school) to the McCauley Mountain Ski Area. This trail is for hiking, biking and cross country skiing. It takes you along an old tow path used by downhill skiers in the 1930s & 40s, before the McCauley Mountain was established. You can see some old downhill ski equipment along your hike, like an old truck that was retrofitting with a shive to tow skier up the hill so they could ski back into town. Die-hard skier would hike beyond the tow hill to McCauley, carrying their skis on their backs.

Rome Free Academy, Rome
We are fortunate to live in an area abundant with colleges. There are so many opportunities to attend many presentations and events they offer to the community. When we told our 13-year-old son we were going to another art exhibit, he rolled his eyes, but conceded. It was wonderful watching his face light upon seeing the amazing "glass galaxies" at Emerson Gallery. It's wonderful when local graduates bring their work back to share with our community. Don't miss it!
