Enjoyed the day with these guys. They were real gentlemen and I appreciated them taking me along.

The definitely should be another Letchworth Hike in the fall... perhaps on the other side?
The Keuka Outlet trail was mentioned several times on this hike. Would anyone be up for 7 miles one way?

Pick a date and they will come. I'll bring my lipstick. ;)

It would have been a nicer day if you would have joined us at the Glen Iris. ;)

Keuka Outlet is my vote as a fall possibility. Bike/Wine tour and end at our cottage for cook-out.

Matt this is the Keuka outlet waterfall I mentioned. Can't recall a waterfall with such strong vegetation almost all the way across the middle of the falls. The path is gorgeous for biking. The Amish dating site! IMO the falls are unique, especially if you like old watermill remnants.

Not a great shot. This was 2008 before RAW and polarizers.

And Inspiration Point. While nothing like the waterfall shooting experts could do - the fact of the matter is - they didn't pass by here. Well, not on foot, anyway. :P
