Schedule
9:00am: Check-in begins/Light breakfast will be available
10:00am: SHARP: Hikes begin
Hike Choices:
Breakneck Overlook to Hudson Overlook: Led by Whammy. This moderate hike has the glory of climbing Breakneck Ridge (this is the 4th peak of Breakneck) without actually climbing up the rock face. We will take a scenic, walk in the woods through Cornish, climbing up the mountain towards this overlook, loop around to Hudson Overlook, and then come back down into camp. Maximum hiking time is 5 hours, including time for lunch. You must be able to walk 20 minutes up an incline without getting short of breath in order to choose this hike.
Cornish Discovery: Led by Jeff Berk. Explore our historic Northgate ruins. Difficulty level ranges from rustic, unleveled roads to mild inclines. This is a great option for families with children. Maximum hiking time is 3 hours, including time for lunch.
