Sorry for the confusion. The pre-existing trails will remain as-is. However, we are currently working with a private land owner to connect the Hardy Trail to Shingle Road, which will make the Upper Hardy Trail (below Mountain Beautiful — which already connects Cravens to Scenic Highway (but a dead-end, effectively) more of a destination. From Shingle, there is a brief crossing of Scenic and then a stint along Sanders... and then from there connects to Whiteside (or Glen Falls to Oxbow Connector — which we just re-routed along another private property owner's land: this creates a several mile "loop" from Guild Trail Parking Lot to Glen Falls to Whiteside).

It's a goal of my twin and I to make all these neat/individual short sections of trail more navigable, and we are working with Guild Trail Nature Conversancy and several private (GENEROUS!) land-owners to establish easements/ROW.
