In general, the soils underneath the Greenway tend to be gravelly or silty clay loam. The entire trail is fairly level, with the majority of slopes being less than five percent. A complete, narrative description of the soils can be found in Appendix F Natural Resources Flora A complete biological inventory of Greenway property is not presently available (October 2013). However, SUNY Geneseo botany students began to inventory flora within sections of the corridor. The New York State Natural Heritage Program has targeted the GVG for a Natural Heritage inventory in 2014.

  • Monsters of Spring Creek Bobby Gold the Creek

    Monsters of Spring Creek Bobby Gold the Creek

    Monsters of Spring Creek Bobby Gold The Creek The creek itself spans between the towns of Caledonia and Mumford New York and is a tributary to the much larger Oatka creek. This area is very well known for it’s fly-fishing as well as the oldest fish hatchery in the western Hemisphere, which is controlled by the Department of Environmental Protection (DEP). What makes Spring Creek so unique is the fact that, like the name entails, it is spring fed. This keeps the spring at an average annual temperature of about 52˚F. To add on top of the complexity of this ecosystem, the spring itself has formed underneath a limestone deposit, making the water fairly basic, with a pH around 8.5. The heightened pH of the creek provides the aquatic life with the ideal environment to flourish. The pH is just high enough to provide a buffer from acid rain and suppress unwanted vegetation like mosses and algae while remaining low enough to not cause disruption to their bodily functions. Protocol Water samples were taken at several points along the creek including at the origin of the spring, the fish hatchery and far downstream, about 1000 feet from the intersection the Spring Creek and Oatka Creek. These samples were not only taken to observe the macro and microorganisms in the water but also to test some of the water qualities such as coliforms and pH. All imaging was done in an off site lab to better control the lighting environment and then the subjects are returned back to the creek.
