Join Deanna Felicetta as she continues this series of spring adventures along the Devil’s Path. This moderate-difficult, seven-mile hike will include visits to the Mink Hollow Lean-to, Dibble’s Quarry, and of course plenty of rock scrambling and views to and from the 3783’ summit. The pace will be moderate, and the route will ascend from Mink Hollow and descend through Pecoy Notch. We expect this will be a six-hour hike.
Participants should bring lunch, snacks, water, beverage, camera, sunscreen, insect repellent, sturdy hiking boots, poles (if desired), clothing layers, and an extra pair of socks. The hike is limited to 12 participants and registration is required. To register, contact Deanna Felicetta at felicetta.deanna@gmail.com or (845) 216-2021 by June 1.
