Game Farm Property in Berne

A quick drive up to the Town of Berne's newest town park, the Game Farm Property, which for a few years in the early 2000s was a Buddist Camp. There are no trails up there AFAIK, just a large community hall and buildings from when it was a hunting club and game farm.

Woodstock Road

Last winter, several parcels were being sold off on Woodstock Road, some of which interested me as a potential home site. But the road is inaccessiable currently in the winter, though I wanted to check them out. So I did a quick drive-by on my way from Cole Hill State Forest to Partridge Run.

Barn

When I took this picture, there wasn't much farming going on, at this farm off Peasely Road. Now it's full of beef cattle and buffalo.

Lower Switzkill Valley

Taking a look across the Lower Switzkill Valley where the creek winds into Fox Creek outside of Berne. In the distance is Sickle Hill and the many farms that cover the valley.
