Shoe Trees

Lyndonville, NY

Slight regret at not bringing a pair to contribute.

A nice couple in a Ford Bronco Sport stopped to inquire if I was alright. I thanked them for asking and received a pair of knowing nods when I said I was enjoying their local landmark.

The story is that they were thrown, though there's nothing preventing people from climbing. I imagine some pairs required multiple flings. They're not doing the trees ang good. You can see that they have been trimmed, and new ones planted. I noticed the site on a map when investigating routes to take during my drive to Rochester. I also visited the Lake Ontario shoreline and had a look at a replica canal boat on Saturday. Dave

Wow! Do you think they were all just thrown up there, or did some people actually climb the trees to place the shoes there? Alastair

Great find, can’t say I’ve ever seen anything like that before. Paul
