Stoners Trail is bypass of Fort Johnson for passenger cars from Tribes Hill to Johnstown. One of the most scenic roads in the Mohawk Valley, it takes you past many farms along the way. First cutting of hay on many of fields along the way.
There is an old snowmobile trail/woods road by the Powley Place Bridge, that extends 2.5 miles west to Big Alderbed, that takes you to a wire crossing over the East Branch. The trail follows the East Branch for a short distance, then heads back into an interesting Old Growth Forest with a lot of big trails. To reach Big Alderbed -- which is largely drained wetland due to a failed dam -- you have to bushwhack along the stream to the mouth of the wetland.

They were very nice yesterday, and would be nice today if I didn't have to work.
