The cold weather is rapidly approaching and the bike will be getting dusty. No reason for the cyclist to get dusty. Let’s start off the season with a leisurely hike in the local area.

Meet at 9 AM at the Scott Farm, 301 Bernheisel Bridge Rd Carlisle, PA 17015 to carpool up to the Miller’s Gap’s Darrington Trailhead. A leisurely hike with no vertical to the Darrington Shelter and Appalachian Trail. From there, it is all downhill, past the Stone Bench, to the Scott Farm. Approximately 6 miles of easy hiking.

Updated Info on PA Hunting Requirements – Pennsylvania has increased the timespan for wearing safety orange in state hunting areas. The new dates are Oct. 1 through Jan. 31, and again in the spring from April 1-May 31. During this period, by law you must wear fluorescent orange if you are recreating in Pennsylvania state game lands, state parks, state forests, or other state areas where hunting is permitted (now applies on Sundays, too). The official requirement is to wear at least 250 total square inches of blaze orange on the head, chest, and back that is visible from all sides. Note that a normal baseball hat is about 100 square inches, so that alone does not suffice.
