Last spring, I took off a day from work to spend some time hiking and exploring some nearby preserves. I started out the day visiting the newly opened Bozen Kill Preserve.

A quiet but nice preserve, with a small creek — the Bozen Kill — and a trail that looks out over the gorge.

There is a natural rock cut at the end of the trail, that reminds me bit of Zoar Valley.

Later on in the day, I visited the Christman Sanctuary, which is farther up on the Bozen Kill near the Knox – Delanson town line.

Not a torrent of water coming over the falls, but still a nice day.

It was relaxing to just sit down by the falls and enjoy the scenic beauty on this beautiful spring day.
