Fall Foliage Hike


Details
Come see the fall colors
This one will lead us to the north side of Harriman State Park to the Old Silver mine Ski Center parking lot. Ok first things first to all who plan on attending this event "THERE IS NO CELL SERVICE IN THE PARKING LOT" or "ON MOST OF THE TRAIL AS WELL AS UP AT THE SHELTER"
This hike is somewhat short just 3 miles on the yellow Menomine Trail; the first mile is alongside the beautiful Silver Mine Lake however this trail is rocky so the set pace will be somewhat slower to prevent anyone turning an ankle or falling. Here's the challenge but not a huge one the last half mile is all up hill and yes still rocky but push through it troops and we'll arrive at the Willian Brien Memorial Shelter on the AT.
Bring
· 2 liters water and favorite snack
· Comfortable boots
· Bug Repellant
Anyone looking to study this trail or the surrounding area you can find it on NY/NJ Trail Conference map #119 or Avenza Maps app.
Firewood needs to be cut and processed for some light and warmth during the outing.
