Ariel Zangla reports in the Daily Freeman comments are being sought on a draft amendment to the Kaaterskill Wild Forest Unit Management Plan. The amendment would would allow for one mile of newly designated trails to connect state lands with the Kaaterskill Rail Trail. Once completed, the trail extension will run from the hamlet of Haines Falls to the site of the former Laurel House Hotel and then connect with trails leading to the Department of Environmental Conservation's North/South Lake Campground. In all, one mile of newly designated multiple-use trails in the Kaaterskill Wild Forest are proposed for non-motorized recreation purposes. The DEC is accepting comments on the proposed amendment until May 17. Read the full story in the Daily Freeman.
