trips - March on the MST- Views, jungles, and rocks!Trip Info
DescriptionWeekends for this hike will be 3/22- 3/23 or 3/29-3/30. A more definite decision will be made later based upon anticipated weather and those who can attend. Size of group is limited to 5 people. We'll need to shuttle, which is quick and easy. We'll meet at Greenwood Furnace State Park and shuttle to the beginning of the hike. http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/stateparks/parks/greenwoodfurnace.aspx This is a superb trail. highlights: views, views, views...part of this is a ridgetop trail with rocky terrain and numerous awesome vistas. indian wells vista is incredible. 4 incredible natural area- big laurel flat, bear meadows, detweiler, and alan seeger. each of these places are awesome. expect scenic streams, great camping, rhododendron tunnels, and old growth forest. Alan Seeger Natural Area is very beautiful with rhododendron jungles and old growth hemlock. We'll finish at Greenwood Furnace State Park, with old stack iron furnaces and lots of history. Patsuatch is leading a group on this same section 3/28-30 that I'm signed up for, but it's a larger group. I was hoping for a smaller group, but if no one is interested, I'll go with them. The trail is rugged and somewhat difficult, there is a big climb on Sunday after Alan Seeger Natural Area.
