Towards Ridge of Valley
Cortland Development
Cortland is kind of an interesting metropolitan area to explore, as the city is pretty much limited to the valley within the hills, as terrain and the lack of industry have limited it's growth. Outside of the city, is high, tree-covered hills and state land with shallow soils, and deep, rich agricultural valleys, especially to the north around Preble.
The Ostelic Valley – NY 26
Maybe a fairly unremarkable rural valley in Chenango, Cortland and Madison counties but a pleasant drive and worth an exploration.
