This pond along the Skyline Trail probably had the most wildlife, with many dead trees along the way providing shelter for peepers and other wildife.

The Skyline Trail not only is mostly well drained, it's been a very dry spring.

Hiked about four miles along the Skyline Trail to the CCC Trail before returning along the Taconic Crest Trail. 

Twin Pond is one of several beautiful little ponds along the Skyline Trail. It was definately a beautiful day and lots of wildlife along the way but I left my glass in the truck.

Another nice little wildlife pond I sat down by for a while.

Not a lot of good views from the Taconic Crest Trail, but that's the case with much of the trail. Best you get is winter views between the branches.
