Also known as Vanbuskirk Glen, this steep, wooded area offers a relatively short but uncrowded gorge trek. On the map below, I've given the *approximate* borders of a property owned by Ithaca College. Everything else in this area seems to be private land, most of it with plenty of "posted" signs all around.The main owner of property around the IC tract would prefer that people stay out, for safety and privacy reasons, and fishing is particularly unwelcome here. Permission to access the Ithaca College tract, and information on appropriate access points, may be obtained by contacting Nancy Pierce in the Biology Department at (607) 274-3161 or by email at npierce@ithaca.edu (Ed. Note: original text amended to include IC permission information, at the request of Ithaca College).
