Description:
Come join Outdoor Adventure Friends as we explore a new area: Turkey and Pyramid mountain. Along the way, hikers can enjoy scenic vistas of natural landmarks, including Tripod Rock, Bear Rock, and, on clear days, the Manhattan skyline in the distance. Trails range from moderate to strenuous, but I wouldn't consider this a hard hike for most.
Pace will be in the moderate range with an average of 3.2 mph.
This area is about 2 hours from Phila, closer for Northern suburbs. Pictures look like it is well worth the trip!
