Mountainside Farms Dairy
Just north of Hubbells Corners, the Catskill Scenic Trail winds right through the Mountainside Farms Dairy processing plant. You can smell the milk and the steam as you walk through the yard where the rail trail goes right between the buildings.

A lot of the trail, especially through the notch south of Grand Gorge reminds me of the Old Erie Canal, although it never was a canal -- it's just the East Branch Delaware River is channeled between the old rail grade and state highway.
