This was my first time hiking at Garrison, where there are no facilities or services available - which means that the town gains no economic or financial benefit from those who go walking here. Their loss, I suppose.
From the train station, we walked down a series of trails (blue to white to red) to go through and around Glenclyffe. Across 9D, we followed Sugarloaf (red) all the way up to the top of Sugarloaf Hill, then back down again to take a little bit of the Osborn Loop (blue) before following a "woods road" all the way around the base of Sugarloaf Hill. That got us back to the red trail again, and we crossed 9D and took the white and blue trails all the way back to the train station. The route seems to have been about 7 miles, all told.
