Sullivan O&W Rail Trail Alliance Cancels 6th Annual SnO&W Walk and Hike

Mamakating, N.Y.  – Due to weather-related conditions, the Sullivan O&W Rail Trail Alliance has canceled their 6th Annual SnO&W Snowshoe Walk & Hike that was planned for Sunday, February 1st at 10:00 AM on the historic O&W Rail Trail in the Town of Mamakating. In addition to the forecasted weather conditions, high snow accumulation at the entrance to the trail rendered the planned route impassable.

“In an effort to consider and ensure the safety of our participants, we made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s SnO&W due to forecasted weather conditions that are expected for Sunday, February 1st, such as extreme low temperatures coupled with considerable wind gusts predicted throughout the day,” said Austin Davis of Sullivan County’s Division of Planning and member of the Alliance.

The Sullivan O&W Rail Trail Alliance encourages anyone who may be interested in any of their future trail events to visit their website periodically at www.SullivanOandW.com/events or the Sullivan O&W Rail Trail on Facebook or Instagram for future event announcements.

The Sullivan O&W Rail Trail Alliance is a partnership of local government entities, non-profits, and volunteers which serve as the stewards for the trail. For more information about the O&W Rail Trail and the work of the Alliance, visit www.SullivanOandW.com.
