Saturday, December 4, 9 A.M. HITHER HILLS STATE PARK (5 miles)
Nearing its centenary, 1,755-acre Hither Hills State Park ranks among the crown jewels of the NYS park system. We'll hike through the park along the Paumanok Path to the bayside of Montauk, enjoying along the way some of the most pristine water vistas and diverse terrain on the East End. Note the 9 o'clock start time. Meet on Napeague Harbor Road where the Paumanok Path crosses, about 1/4 mile north of the LIRR railroad tracks. Leader: Jim Zajac jzajac4@aol.com, 212-769-4311 or 631-324-2425.
