25. Future of Horse Trails at Harriet Hollister
Description
In this episode, we break down the March 5th public meeting about the Harriet Hollister Spencer State Recreation Area trail proposal and what it means for equestrian riders. Right now, horseback riding is not officially allowed in the park—but that could change.
🔹 Why the trail system is being reviewed
🔹 How the State Environmental Quality Review (SEQRA) process will impact the timeline
🔹 What equestrians can do NOW to advocate for access
🔹 Why volunteer efforts will be crucial to making these trails horse-friendly
The deadline for public comments is April 1st—so if you ride, now is the time to make your voice heard!
