A compact Upstate New York state forest of mixed hardwoods, winding streams, small wetland pockets and rolling glacial terrain — excellent for intimate forest landscapes, fall color, stream long exposures and quiet wildlife moments. Best visited at golden hour or overcast days for soft, even light; peak foliage in mid-Oct. Trails are primitive off Pat Farley Rd with limited free parking at trailheads; expect uneven footing and limited signage. No fees; leave no trace. Weekdays and early mornings
