As you may have heard, Noah is retiring from leading hikes. This will be the last hike he hosts and we hope that many of his loyal hikers will be able to attend. After the hike there will be a retirement party for Noah at a local restaurant. Cash bar.
Specs:
The hike is classified as easy to moderate and is about 2 miles long.
The hike should take 1 to 1.5 hours.
As with all hikes you must be in good, athletic shape.
Member Cost:
$5 for the first 5 to buy a ticket
$10 for the next 6-25 to buy a ticket
$20 at the door (so please register online)
Non-Member Cost:
$20 online and at the door
Tickets:
There are a limited number of Tickets for sale. Tickets are not mailed, but your name will be kept at the door. Actual hike is subject to change depending on weather conditions, fallen trees, etc. All sales are final.
Sweeper:
If the group size is larger than 10, we are going to look for a volunteer to act as a sweeper. Sweepers will walk at the end of the hike line and will make sure the group stays together.
Hike Leader:
Noah will be leading this hike.
Noah will not be waiting for late comers. In fairness to those who arrive on time, the hike will start on time.
What to bring:
Hiking boots are required.
Please bring 2 liters of water as well (yes, it is just as easy to dehydrate in the cold).
Please dress in layers that are not made out of cotton. Cotton, when wet, does not dry and can make you feel much colder. Synthetic fiber outdoor wear is always ideal in all weather conditions and all seasons.
Consider bringing a snack as well if you may get hungry while hiking.
Inclement Weather:
Precipitation (rain or snow) will cancel this hike. Also, the forecasted high for the day will have to be above 32 degrees and no standing snow cover on the ground. Please check your inbox for updates and the NJYP.org calendar. Tickets will be refunded.
Directions:
The entrance to the reservation is on Route 202 (Ramapo Valley Road), about two miles south of Route 17.

Comment
I've had a great run with NJYP over the past two years and soon it will be coming to an end. I'd like for everyone to join me in this easy winter hike around the scenic Ramapo Reservation! After the hike, everyone is invited for food/drinks at the Elm Street Grill in nearby Oakland to celebrate the holidays, the new year, and of course my retirement!
See you all on the 18th!
