Wolfe Park Scenic Chronicles Overlook

Scenic Chronicles are a series of images of the same scene taken over a long period of time. Back to the Wolfe Park Scenic Chronicles Page.

Overlook

On the Blue Bird trail there is an overlook which looks over a meadow where you'll sometimes see deer. You're facing east by northeast. There is the plaza on Front Street ahead in the middle of the frame. You might be able to make out the "Lowes" sign. Looking beyond that, you see two hills with a valley between and a third hill way off in the distance. The Chenango River winds through there. The first valley being Chenango Bridge and then Port Crane in the most distant valley.

At first, I thought I had the last picture duplicated. A couple days ago, we had a 48-hour weather event starting with snow, then winter mix, more snow, squalls, and high winds.
