SALAMAMCA - Winter Snowshoe Hikes- Join us every Wednesday evening at 4:30pm for a trek into the sunset at Allegany State Park. Park Environmental & Recreation Educators will lead interpretive snowshoe treks, weather depending, or hikes if there is not enough snow. Witness a breath-taking winter sunset at Stone Tower, visit a secret beaver pond or hike along a creek. Meeting places and hikes will vary. See schedule below. Be sure to dress for the weather, bring a flashlight, water, a snack, and a sense of adventure. Need snowshoes? No problem, we have several pairs to use during the program for FREE! Please call to reserve snowshoes by noon the day of each hike. For more information contact the Environmental Education/Recreation Department at 716-354-6262.
