Turkey Mountain

While the overall distance is light -likely under 3 miles -there is a decent up so please keep that in mind before signing up.

Features- SUNSET n More -plus there may be a few birch trees former Westchester Outdoor N More leader Ted Gass marked up -can we find them?

I do not classify this as beginner event due to the elevation gain

Meetup Location - Locke Lane, Yorktown Heights, NY 10598 - other option -the entrance is opposite the entrance for the Peter Pratt Inn on 118 -so that may be helpful for the directionally challenged - to be crystal clear -you are not going to the Peter Pratt Inn - the road for the Turkey Mountain hike is opposite the road off 118 that you would take to the Peter Pratt Inn

# Turkey Mountain Nature Preserve

Turkey Mountain was preserved through the efforts of concerned citizens who recognized its value, and its preservation and maintenance are a continuing concern of the Yorktown Land Trust. The 125 acre preserve, owned by the Town of Yorktown, offers summit views at 831 feet to the Croton Reservoir and dam; the Hudson River; the New York City skyline to the south; Bear Mountain, across the Hudson; the Hudson Highlands; and on a clear day, the ridge of the Shawangunks.

Location: Off the west side of Route 118, approximately 2 mile south of the intersection of Routes 202, 35, and 118, and one mile north of the intersection of Route 129 and 118, opposite of Croton Heights Road.
