Spring Workout on Baldpate Mountain

Baldpate mountain, part of the volcanic Sourland Mountain Ridge, is the highest point in Mercer County. We will hike 8-10 miles at a MODERATE pace with approximately 1209 feet plus of elevation. Trails range from continuous steep rocky inclines, packed dirt, heavily rooted, climbing over tree trunks and fording a creek on rocks. Challenging hike overall, NOT recommended for beginners. Good sturdy waterproof hiking shoes and TICK repellent are recommended. We will also take in some history as well! PLEASE NOTE: Picture of house is where you turn into parking area.
