BITS - Binghamton Interdisciplinary Tech Social
@bits607.bsky.social
An interdisciplinary group of Science, Technology, Engineering, Infrastructure, Arts, Architecture, and Manufacturing enthusiasts located in Broome County, New York coming together to share and expand our knowledge and interests.
This week we went to the Wittman Dam. This small, out of the way, flood control dam is tucked a way out of site from passers by. Most people don't even know it is here. It is a local infrastructural engineering gem managed by Broome County. We had a nice walk along the dam and spill way.

We were a bit disappointed with the recently revised path on the earthen flood wall between Noyes Island and C. Lindsey. It seems narrower than what we remember and the ramps up to the path near C. Lindsey are very steep. We need to come back and check if they are ADA compliant.

This week we took a walk along the Two Rivers Greenway from Martin Luther King Jr Park and Promenade up past Cheri A Lindsey Park.

Last week we took a walk around the IBM Glen. Due to the threat of rain and our dislike of being wet and uncomfortable we only walked the Red trail. Even though our walk was short we got to see an abundance of wildlife, we encountered 2 deer and a bunch of small critters and birds.

We had a good time walking around the Whitney Point Dam trail on our most recent meetup. We even got to see a few monarch caterpillars on the remnants of some milkweed that had been mown down. Hopefully it wont get mown again until after they have a chance to fly away as butterfly's.
