    Hi Patrick, will there be snow on the ground? Would you recommend microspikes?

      I don't think that we should need them. But if you want to bring them, feel free. I am just bringing boots with good grip.

    Hey guys and ladies. If you could update your RSVP with you ride status it would be a helpful with people needing rides. I live close to the path train in Jersey City if anyone one wants a ride after taking the path under the Hudson.

      Hi Sam, I decided not to do this hike because I couldn't get a ride from the city or Brooklyn. Going to queens is just too far for me. Thanks anyway.

    Does anyone still need a ride? I can give someone a ride if they are willing to take the PATH train to Jersey City or pick someone up in Newark NJ.
