Richland (1NY3) → Woodford (4NK4).
1. Oneida Lake:
After leaving Lake Ontario behind us on our journey south we approached Oneida Lake. While not officially part of the “Finger Lakes” of Upstate New York it is often counted as the “thumb” of this iconic set of lakes.
2. Syracuse, New York:
The city of Syracuse has always been an important transport and infrastructure hub in the State of New York: Founded as a French missionary outpost on Iroqouis territory it grew in importance after the construction of the Erie Canal as well as several important rail lines in the American Northeast.
3. Appalachian Plateau near La Fayette, New York:
After passing Syracuse we entered the Appalachian Mountains near La Fayette in Onondaga County. Sadly due to time constraints I had to cut this flight short but we’ll continue as soon as I am back from my weekend trip next Tuesday!
