Gilboa New York |
Off Hwy 342, just west of the Schoharie Creek bridge is a group of fossil tree stumps that represent the oldest known species of trees on Earth. Known as eospermatopteris, they were seed bearing tree ferns which grew in the shore muds of an ancient Devonian sea that lay west of the present Catskill Mountains. The fossils are identified by a historical marker.
Gilboa is located in Schoharie County northeast of Grand Gorge on Highway 17 and in the Central Region of the state.
Gilboa is part of the Albany-Schenectady-Troy, New York metro area.
