Event Description

CANCELED due to pending rain. Tickets will be refunded.

Introducing our FIRST hike for women only! Expand your girlfriend circle by meeting up with local, young women who enjoy the outdoors.

This quick early spring hike will take us through the woods, around a lake and past waterfalls. You will get good fresh air into your lungs and your heart will be pumping! At the end everyone will venture to a local restaurant for a tasty lunch and cold drinks.

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 10 to buy a ticket
$10 for the next 11-25 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:
Kristin will be leading this hike.
Kristin 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.
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 if you may get hungry while hiking.

Inclement Weather:
Heavy rain will cancel this hike but light rain may not. 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.
