'MORE RAVINES STILL. 



Those ravines that present the most striking features 

 and most often attract the notice of the tourist or pleas- 

 ure seeker have now been described, together with at least 

 one good way to reach each of them. But there are many 

 more that in any region less richly favored than Ithaca, 

 would be esteemed worthy of the most elaborate descrip- 

 tion. Such a one is Coy's Glen or the Artist's Ravine, 

 in the side of West Hill a mile below the Depot. It is 

 full of delightful nooks, and is a favorite resort for those 

 who seek the early blooming arbutus in the first fra- 

 grance of spring. At L,udlowville, also, the Ludlovv- 

 ville Falls, and the Indian Falls awaken an enthusias- 

 tic appreciation of their beauties in every 7 visitor. Bur- 

 dick's Glen and Shurger's Ravine on the east shore of 

 the lake, nearer than L,udlowville, reward the tourist 

 richly. At Trumansburg Landing, a mile and a half 

 north of Taughannock, a large stream empties into the 

 lake upon which are two superb falls, a hundred, and 

 a hundred and fifty feet in height. 



At the other end of our territory, some seven miles 

 down the Inlet valley, the Newfield Ravine and the so- 

 called West Branch, afford scenes which are said to rival 

 anything the Lake country can present. Every little 

 stream conforms to the general structure of the country, 

 and in so doing makes itself as beautiful as it can.
