If you can walk, you can snowshoe!
The 2014 NYCC Hiking/Snowshoeing SIG meets Sundays, January 5th through early March, with extra outings after snowstorms. Each outing ranges from four to eight miles, usually in the Harriman/Bear Mountain/Sterling Forest/West Point areas.
Here's how it works. SIG members get a midweek email, detailing Sunday's outing. To participate, simply email back—before Friday night—offering to drive (we usually car pool,) requesting a seat in someone’s car, or inquiring about a mass transit option. First “yes" gets first available seat, etc. We try to confirm seats ASAP; by Friday evening at latest. Every passenger contributes $15 to their outbound driver to help defray costs.
We often stop for in Montvale for coffee and a pastry on our way home, returning to the city ~4:30 PM; one car often skips this stop, allowing earlier returns. This SIG has no minimum participation requirement. For more info, email Ken (nyccmultisport@gmail.com,) or Marilyn at marilyn.weissman@nyc.rr.com.
