    1 Interstate Hiking Club Organized 1931 Affiliate of the NY-NJ Trail Conference Schedule of Hikes May 2008 through October 2008 Web Page: http:// www.MINDSPRING.COM/~INTERSTATEHIKING/ e-mail: [email protected] __________________________________________________________________________ Interstate Hiking Club C/O Charles Kientzler 711 Terhune Drive Wayne, NJ 07470-7111 First Class Mail 2 GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE INTERSTATE HIKING CLUB Who we are! The Interstate Hiking Club (IHC) is a medium-sized hiking club, organized in 1931. IHC has been affiliated with the NY/NJ Trail Conference, as a trail maintaining club, since 1931. Guests are welcome! An adult must accompany anyone under 18. No Pets allowed on IHC hikes. Where do we go? Most of our activities are centered in the NY/NJ area; some hikes, bicycle rides and canoe trips are farther away. The club occasionally sponsors trips in the Catskills and Pennsylvania. Our hikes are not usually accessible by public transportation. What do we do? Hikes, bicycle rides and canoe trips generally are scheduled for every Sunday, and some Fridays and Saturdays, as day-long outings. They are graded by difficulty of terrain, distance and pace. The Hiking grades are: Strenuous: More climbing, usually rugged walking, generally 9 miles or more. Moderate: Some climbing and rugged walking, but less than 9 miles. Easy: Generally easy, fairly level trails, slower pace, and 6 to 8 miles. The club also maintains trails in association with the NY/NJ Trail Conference. Two Sundays a year are devoted to this service work. In addition, in the past we have participated in the following: orienteering, snow-shoeing, cross-country skiing, swimming, canoeing, mountain biking, backpacking, and camp-outs in the Adirondacks and Maine.

  • The Bear Report Fall 2009 a MESSAGE from the EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR JIM HALL 400 Years Ago Henry Hudson Passed Through Our Hudson Valley Noting Its Grandeur
    The Bear Report Fall 2009 A MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR JIM HALL 400 years ago Henry Hudson passed through our Hudson Valley noting its grandeur. Efforts to protect and invest in that magnificence have continued to be a priority of the Palisades Interstate Park Commission since its inception. Our founding families, the Perkinses, the Harrimans, and the Rockefellers created the standard of excellence we resolve to provide each year to over nine million park visitors. There is no shortage of calls for a return to nature and to that end, the revitalization of our State Parks continues to be PIPC’s top priority. Many of our facilities were built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the Works Progress Administration (WPA) generations ago. Their efforts remind us that when you invest in parks everyone feels better. Undeterred by budget cuts and financial uncertainty, we will continue to find creative ways to raise funds, awareness, and opportunities in order for the Palisades Interstate Parks system to flourish and remain the glorious resource it has been for a century. ~ Jim Hall ~ THE CONSERVANCY HONORS The Perkins Family On Thursday, June 4, 2009 the Palisades Parks Conservancy was privileged to honor the Perkins family, long considered the first family of the Commission. Longtime Hudson River Valley residents, they have blazed a path of philanthropy and action that has yielded dozens of parks, museums, cultural centers, farms, monuments, amusements, and the PIPC Group Camp concept that has served tens of thousands of children of all ages for nearly a century. Their belief in nature as the best medicine of all has had a ripple effect worldwide since George W.

It should. By the early twentieth century, the fruitful farmlands of Sullivan and Ulster Counties became home to hundreds of hotels and bungalow colonies that served the Jews of New York City. Yet these hotels were unlike most in America, for they not only represented an escape from the confines of the ghetto of the Lower East Side, but they also retained a distinct religious nature.

This battle was fought on August 16, 1777, in a British effort to capture American storehouses in Bennington to restock their depleting provisions. Baum had entrenched his men at the bridge across the Walloomsac River, Dragoon Redoubt, and Tory Fort, which Stark successfully attacked. Colonel Warner's Vermont militia arrived in time to assist Stark's reconstituted force in repelling Breymann's relief column of some 600 men. The British forces had underestimated the strength of their enemy and failed to get the supplies they had sought, weakening General John Burgoyne's army at Saratoga. Baum and over 200 men died and 700 men surrendered. The Americans lost 30 killed and forty wounded The Site: Hessian Hill offers picturesque views and interpretative signs about the battle. Directions: Take Route 7 east to Route 22, then take Route 22 north to Route 67.
