Hike #9 : Cliff Park in Milford, PA

"The Cliff Trail offers some of the most spectacular overlook views in the recreation area of the serpentine Delaware River valley from atop the Raymondskill Ridge. This view was so inspiring to early film makers that several westerns were filmed using this magnificent scenery as stand-ins for the landscapes out west. Early 1900s actors Tom Mix, Walter Miller and Mary Pickford are just some of the stars who once stood on these vary cliffs." .... The National Park Service We tried to schedule this hike last fall, but the weather got ahead of us and we shut down for the winter.   We hoped to start the 2018 season with this hike but nesting Peregrine Falcons closed the trails for over 6 months.  Hopefully third times is a charm as we'll attempt this hike again on Saturday, September 29th. This is an ideal beginner hike, but also will keep the regulars interested thanks to some epic cliff views and two waterfalls along the way.  If that isn't enough, 2.3 miles
