Harriman Hikers regular Sunday Hike on April 4, 2010 took us into Norvin Green State Forest, NJ, with its many overlook views of Monksville Reservoir. The image below was used as a header photo for the Harriman Hikers website during Spring 2010.

It was too icy and slippery (thin ice with water underneath!
) to go up inside the Pine Swamp Mine on Sunday, but some history and some great photos of the mine can be found here:

Early Fall Color – Ramapo Reservation, NJ
Notice how the bright Fall colors are still mixed with the remaining lush Summer greenery. Interesting time of year, no?
This post also serves to highlight the fact that while Harriman Hikers most frequently hikes its namesake, Harriman State Park, NY, we also hike in other wilderness parks and reserves / preserves in the area, such as Ramapo Reservation, a Bergen County Park, located a short distance from our weekly meetup at Ramapo College of New Jersey in Mahwah, NJ.
