The IBM Glen contains a mature forest with some of the oldest and largest trees in Broome County, and its cascading gorge is the region's finest. For centuries people have enjoyed the Glen's majestic trees, cool waterfalls, colorful wildflowers, and abundant bird and animal life. We know that the region's native inhabitants must have loved this magical spot, and when white settlers began to arrive in the 18th century one of the first homesteaders built next to the Glen. </STRONG></FONT></TD></TR> <TR vAlign=top> <TD width="31%"><FONT size=4><IMG height=264 src="the_glen_files/glenpicture201.jpg" width=181 area="62208"></FONT></TD> <TD vAlign=center width="69%"><FONT size=4><FONT face=Americana color=#000066><STRONG>In the IBM Glen, a carefully-built trail with natural stone steps and bridges, including two stone arch bridges, was built in the 1930's or 1940's.
