NEARA field trip

Somebody go and take some pictures please.

NEARA REMINDER OF FIELD TRIP ON SUNDAY 10/29 @ 10:30 FAHNESTOCK CAIRNS

The NY Neara Field Trip is scheduled for this Sunday 10/29/06 @ 10:30 a.m.

The trip will start at the Wiccopee Road Parking Area which can be reached by taking Pudding Street west of the Taconic State Parkway (or left onto Pudding Street from the northbound Taconic). Take the first right and follow Wiccopee Road to its end.

The cairn clusters and other interesting stone structures are in the Wiccopee/Bushy Ridge area of Fahnestock State Park and Clear Lake Boy Scout Reservation. Some moderately strenuous off-trail walking will be required to visit some of the sites. It will take 2 -3 hours to visit all of the sites. Participants should plan on bringing their usual hiking gear, food and water.

Please contact Rob Buchanan at 914-243-4259, gochamp@aol.com if there are any questions. We appreciate knowing who is coming on a trip. However, do not stay home because you have not been in touch in advance. Additional contact: polmidge@optonline.net, 914-373-4247.
