Shavertown Trail Reopens to the Public

Shavertown Trail Reopens View this email in your browser

Just in time for the Fourth of July!

We are happy to announce that the Shavertown Trail will reopen to the public effective tomorrow, July 3rd. In addition to the trail to Snake Pond that was closed so the NYCDEP could complete restoration work on the pond, the farm road that was closed last year to facilitate a logging operation will reopen. Combined, these two trail sections create a Snake Pond loop hike of about 1.5 miles. We ask that you stay on the trail around the pond to protect the newly seeded pollinator wildflowers while they become established. We continue to work on a new trail section that we hope to open later this month.

For more information about this and other Catskill recreational opportunities check the "Where to Go" menu on the CMC website. You can download free maps of the CMC built trails for smartphones using the Avenza Maps app: https://catskillmountainclub.org/…/cmc-trails-maps-for-you…/.

Please observe social distancing recommendations when hiking. While we in New York have made great progress towards controlling the spread of the virus, it is vitally important that we all continue to be careful.
