Island Pond Summer
Harriman Hikers spends a significant amount of time in the Summer hiking to and at Island Pond in Harriman State Park, NY. The photo below is from the south end of the “pond” near Island Pond Road.
Skannatati Twilight
Lake Skanati in Harriman State Park, NY is one of the Seven Lakes for which the main park thoroughfare, Seven Lakes Drive is named.
The boat launch / parking lot located at Lake Skannatati provides convenient, plentiful parking for our group as well as easy access to several trails we hike on frequently, not to mention allowing us an opportunity to enjoy the beauty of the lake itself.
Lake Skannatati is pictured here as the last withering bit of golden daylight falls on the reeds to the far right, while most of the rest of the lake is already bathed in twilight.
Green Pond
Green Pond is a pristine mountain pond in the northern part of Harriman State Park, about a 45 minute hike in from the Elk Pens. Note the beaver lodge on the right. The top photo was taken in the Winter and featured on our homepage; the lower photo was taken in the Summer.
Lakes Skannatati, Kanawaukee and Sebago
From this vantage point a short distance from the Lake Skannatati parking lot, one can observe three picturesque lakes located in Harriman State Park, NY; (front to back): Lake Skannatati, Lake Kanawaukee and Lake Sebago.
Website Upgrade
Well, it was “time”…
The old website just sort of gave up the ghost. Time to put the ol’ hoss out to pasture.
Snow On TheWay!?
- Preface: This announcement is in regard to a possible additional event. Additional events never affect or replace Harriman Hikers regular Sunday Hikes. Harriman Hikers hikes EVERY Sunday, year-round, rain or shine (or snow!*
– just as we have for over 30 years.
