Took a nice drive on this warmer December day to Greek Peak. After we left, we took a ride to the state land and it was fun.

Pipeline Roof is a very good place to access the Finger Lakes Trail except in the winter, if you have a high clearance vehicle. It is best to stay off pipeline road if you’re vehicle does not have high clearance. There is several loop trail options to theSouth using pipeline road, the main finger lakes trail, the Neil Brook Trail, and the cross country ski trails.
