Breakfast with boy scouts, bicycling and a wine tasting.

Breakfast with the Boy Scouts at Camp Edmar followed by a bike trip on public roads and PRIVATE PROPERTY! (By permission) Must be a member; you can join that day. We'll hear the original "witchy woman." (Sparks really do fly from her fingertips! Woo-Woo) playing hauntingly familiar tunes on her cello. We'll be pushing the bikes up the hills to see panoramic scenery in fall splendor and coast down to the next hill. We'll "wine down" with a wine tasting at Blair Vineyards. (Nothing to do with the Blair-Witch Project). 9 mile loop with lots of ups and downs.

A Natural Lands Trust larger than most state parks.

Bear Creek Preserve is a vast expanse of forests and steep stream valleys located just south of Wilkes-Barre, PA. This preserve features streams, wetlands, waterfalls, hemlocks, rock outcroppings, views and rhododendron tunnels. We will hike to the scenic outlook, cross 3 bridges (one is a new cable suspension bridge) and enjoy the trail that parallels Shades Creek. Good hiking footwear is highly recommended since sections will be rocky and some areas may be wet. Bring water and lunch. No dogs, please. Heavy rain cancels.
