Summer Solstice AT Section Hike: Eckville to Rt. 309
This is a challenging hike along the AT which will include 1000ft+ ascent and some very rocky terrain.
The hike will feature stops at Dan's Pulpit, Balanced Rock, Tri-County Corner & Allentown Shelter. Many great views! If you have the stamina for a steep ascent, are a skilled rock hopper, and a fan of great vistas, this is the AT hike for you. With stops at Dan's Pulpit, Balanced Rock, Tri-County Corner & Allentown Shelter, we will take in several wonderful views. If folks are interested at the conclusion of the hike, Blue Mountain Restaurant welcomes smelly hikers and might just have their outdoor seating open by then. Definitely not for beginners! Wear sturdy boots and bring at least 2 liters of water, lunch and snacks. Rain cancels. RSVP by June 16. (ksnyd82@gmail.com)
