Hmmm. Marion still not dating Hanford . . .

Here is some information about Wolf Hollow, taken from the Fulton NY Gen Web site. It comes from a book published in 1920 called The Old Mohawk Turnpike Book:

Wolf Hollow - Road to Saratoga.
Leaving the Mohawk Turnpike west of Hoffmans station, a road leads up Touareuna hill through Wolf Hollow, in which runs the Chaughtanoonda. This is the famous Mohawk-Mohican battleground referred to and is worth a visit for its wild picturesqueness. At the first sharp bend in the hollow, is "Johnny's Spring," a good picnicking spot. Unsuccessful attempts at coal mining were made here, the shaft opening being called the "Coal Mine."

Thirty species of ferns and some uncommon orchids are here found. Wolf Hollow marks a tremendous earthquake of past geological ages, the rock displacement here evidenced being called the "Hoffmans Ferry Fault." This geological disturbance outrivaled any earthquake of history, the rock crust to the east having dropped 1,000 feet.

A cave in the northern cliff is called "the Bear's Den."

The Wolf Hollow road forms a short cut to Saratoga (24 m.) for the eastbound motorist, via Glenville, West Charlton, Scotch Street, thence on the State road through Ballston to Saratoga. 

Kinquariones and Wolf Hollow would make a fine State park site, being accessible and available to the thousands of motorists on the Old Mohawk Turnpike.

Perhaps they had a picnic lunch!
