How to find the group:
Meet in the dirt parking lot right on Snake Den Rd.  It is a large area and immediately visible from the road so there is no mistaking it.  It will be on the right hand side as you are driving up Snake Den Rd.
Please arrive on time as we will not wait for latecomers.

Directions:
Take Interstate Route 80 to Exit 37 (Hibernia/Rockaway) and bear left at the end of the ramp. Continue north on Green Pond Road (County Route 513) for 6.5 miles and turn right onto Upper Hibernia Road. (If coming from the north, you can take Route 23 to Green Pond Road, head south for 3.7 miles, and turn left onto Upper Hibernia Road.) Follow Upper Hibernia Road for 2.5 miles to the end of the paved portion of the road. Continue ahead for a short distance on the gravel road for about 1000 feet until you see an open gravel parking area on the right.

How to find the group:
We will meet in the parking lot. Please be on time.

The best I can offer is look for the intersection of Upper Hibernia Rd and Darlington Dr on a map.  That is where the gravel road starts and you go about 1000 more feet.  Don't try to take Darlington from Green Pond Rd because it gets cut off in the middle.

Thanks Peter.  I'll see if David can chime in too pre-hike.

John, All you need to do is follow the directions above. You can't go any further really than the directions take you. I've been to this location before.  If you pass the Rockaway River Barn you will know you are going the right way.

Is there a GPS friendly address for the parking lot/area near the parking lot on the new hike location?
