Silver Mine Lake to Black Mountain via Owl Lake (6+ Miles)

Man, it's Harriman again. This time we set out from Silver Mine Lake to Black Mountain via Owl Lake. This is a moderate 6.5 mile hike through the dramatic terrain and serene woodlands trails typical of Harriman State Park. The elevation gain is around 1,000 feet.

Bring plenty of water and snacks, and appropriate seasonal items (sun- and insect-protection in summer, and crampons in winter). Day-of-hike-only phone: 973-704-7362.
