Goodyear Lake Outing - Tuesday, March 2, 2010

Wed, 03/03/2010 - 16:56 — Currie Marr

Thirteen people met at Goodyear Lake for the outing - 4 walked the lake roads, while 2 skied and 7 snowshoed on the railroad tracks. Even with mounds of snow around us, it began to feel spring-like as the sun came out and warmed the air (and us). Those who returned to the house early enjoyed sitting on the deck in the sun and watching the backyard birds at the feeders. We ended our morning with soup and chili for lunch. You can never tell what March will bring.

Goodyear Lake Hike -- Tuesday, June 23, 2009

WOW!!! Was it because of the beautiful summer day or was it the lure of "ice cream provided"? Whatever the reason, a remarkable number of hikers (37) gathered to walk at Goodyear Lake. Included in our group were the visiting grandchildren of two of our hikers - Chelsea from California and 6-year old Dennis from Maryland. Six people did a 1-hour walk on the lake roads. The rest of us hiked along the railroad tracks and then through a wooded area (some privately owned and some State land) over to the Collier's Dam.

Goodyear Lake Hike -- February 3, 2009

Seventeen people joined in to ski, snowshoe or walk along the railroad tracks from our house at Goodyear Lake. Where the tracks run parallel to the Susquehanna River, we observed a lot of recent beaver activity. We were happy to welcome two first-timers to our group. We returned to the house to enjoy hot soup and good fellowship. Carol Saggese took these photos.

Hike from Goodyear Lake to Colliers Dam - May 27, 2008

Sun, 06/01/2008 - 09:01 — Currie Marr

Nineteen hikers met at our home on Cliffside, Goodyear Lake to walk to the State Fishing Access site along the south end of the lake and on to the Colliers dam. Even though showers were predicted and some clouds looked threatening, it turned out to be a very pleasant morning. As we walked along the railroad tracks, Scott Fielder "rescued" a turtle that seemed unable to get up over the rail. How he scurried off when set down on the other side of the rail. When we got to the lake shore, we were greeted by a catbird overhead who entertained us with a variety of songs.
