RAMAPO RESERVATION HIKING INFORMATION:
WHAT: We will be doing a hike at Ramapo Reservation
WHO: Me :3 and whomever else decides to come
WHERE: Ramapo Mountain State Forest. We plan on doing the Ramapo Lake Trail. Parking is at the Ramapo Mountain SF LOWER LOT.
WHEN: Saturday, June 20th is our scheduled day. Saturday, June 27th is our rain date. We would like to leave by 9 AM, and ideally be done between 11 AM and noon.
OTHER INFO: The trail is about 3 miles, moderately long. As a result, please prepare appropriately. Bring water and possibly a snack. Hiking boots are also recommended. It should be shaded, but sunscreen is also recommended, as well as bug spray if you as a mosquito magnet.
(Dunbrine interjection: Possibility of lot of roots, rocks, potentially muddy areas, tiny streams to cross, light rock scrambling, elevation changes and if it has recently rained, slippery ass leaves. Although the trails wrapping around the lake should have more paved elements)
I may be able to give a ride to people between Ramapo and Paramus.
NOTE: Due to expected crowd size: WE WILL BE MEETING AT THE LOWER LOT (67 Skyline Dr, Oakland, NJ 07436) AND TAKING THE RAMAPO LAKE SPUR AND RAMAPO LAKE TRAIL, WHICH IS OF SIMILAR LENGTH AND DIFFICULTY
