Lizzie, what do you mean "too bad?" Are you an OSU fan, or just not a big fan of football overall?

Comment by Noah on October 6, 2009 at 6:36pm: NJYP, it's time to get acquainted with PA! I highly encourage you to come out for this awesome hike in November which will take us high above the Delaware Water Gap and provide us with an epic view of the majestic Mt. Tammany and it's NJ surroundings. Plan on dressing warm for this one. It pays to have extra layers. After the hike, all are welcome to come out to the local country bakery located about 1/2 mile away from the trail parking lot! See you all then!
