Fyke Weekend at Mount Peter

Mtpete_b
Today and Sunday – Field Trip:  Fyke Weekend at the Mount Peter Hawk Lookout.

Come one or both days and join the regulars at the lookout.  We hope to catch a big broadwing flight. This is traditionally the time of year with the highest numbers.
For a link to a post on the Fyke trip five years ago — with a lot of familiar faces — click here.
Directions follow.

 
To reach the lookout, take Route 17 through Tuxedo to 17A and turn left.  Follow 17A up the mountain and into Greenwood Lake.  Keep right when you reach the lake and follow 17A up the second mountain.  When you reach the top, you will see a sign for Bellvale Farms Creamery (excellent homemade ice cream) ahead.  Turn right at the ice cream shop onto Kain Road and turn right again up the pot-holed dirt road to the lot or park down below.
