2-hour
hybrid hike on the hills in Tryon Park along the wetlands/Irondequoit
Creek. 1st hike approx. 30-minutes down to the marsh shoreline then a
climb back to the cars. 2nd hike 3+ miles with 400+ feet of
ascent/descent. Meet 9:45am in the Tryon Park parking lot for a 10:00am
hike start. Tryon Park (43.16667, -77.53818) is located at the end of
Tryon Park (road) off of North Winton Road between Browncroft and Empire
Boulevards. Drive to the end of Tryon Park (road), cross over highway
590 and the parking lot is on the left. Please dress for the weather,
wear boots or trail shoes with good traction, bring some water to drink,
and with the warming weather, some tick repellent. Hiking poles would
be useful on the steeper sections. Contact Jim Bishop at adk.gvc...@gmail.com with any questions. Dogs are not allowed on this hike.
Our
hybrid hike consists of 2 hikes that allow us to drop off hikers who
prefer a 40-minute to 1-hour easier hike at a slower pace with less
elevation change, then continue with the 2nd hike for the rest of the 2
hours at a faster pace with some short climbs. This allows all of us to
keep hiking together, when some of our old and new friends need to
shorten their hike or some are just starting back hiking after a time
off or recovering from surgery.
