Thank You and End of Season Video

Hello Hikers! With hiking season effectively over for us (though, look for a last minute hike or two during the winter if the weather is nice on a random Saturday), we wanted to thank everyone for coming out.  We logged 40 miles and 7,300 feet of elevation, not too shabby for five hikes in NJ! While the hikes were great, the company was even better.  Truly, what an awesome group to spend some time with.  We are definitely looking forward to next season.   To hold us all over until then, here is a quick 2 minute season recap video Lou made from all the great photos taken during the year.  Enjoy! Thank You! Lou, Jeff, and Karen
