Event Details

On Thanksgiving you eat a bird, the day after you chase after birds!  This hike is for those who want to avoid the malls and the road rage while working off some post-Thanksgiving weight gain. 

Grab your cameras and binoculars (if you  have them) and join us for our yearly hike up to the Hawk Watch.  Based on the migration schedule we should be able to spot several different types of hawks and if we are lucky we will even see some wild turkeys (no promises but we are going to try).

Specs:
The hike is classified as easy to moderate and is about 2.4 miles long.
The hike should take 2 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 we have a large group we will ask for 2 volunteers to act as sweepers. Sweepers will walk at the end of the hike line and will make sure the group stays together.

Hike Leader:
Noah will be leading this hike. He may do a trial run of the hike to make sure the trails are clean, etc.

What to bring:
Hiking boots and water (required).
Snacks, a light lunch, etc.
Binoculars.
Toilet paper, tissues, plastic bags for garbage, etc.

Inclement Weather:
Heavy rain will cancel this hike but drizzle may not.  Please check your inbox for updates and the NJYP.org calendar. Tickets will be refunded.

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, turn left just past Brunache Road, and park in the wide gravel area.

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