Joint hike with Blue Mountain Eagle Climbing Club to commemorate BMECC's first Appalachian Trail work trip.

We are celebrating the 89th anniversary of BMECC's first Appalachian Trail work trip on Nov. 21, 1926, when their trail crew placed their first blazes on the Berks-Lehigh border at Tri-County Corner. On the return hike we will stop at the Allentown Shelter. Bring lunch and water. Heavy rain on morning of hike cancels.
