Description: The demand for the first Mountain Climbing and Pie Hike was amazing. So, we are giving you a second chance! This time we are scaling Mt. Tamminy, just across the river from our last hike. So, you can join us again if you loved the first hike (or pie).
You must be in good shape to do this hike. But, the climb is worth the rewards as we travel up past the little cascades of the Dunfield Creek to the best views in the Water Gap. We will meet late morning for a nice climbing hike that quickly towers over the most dramatic river views in all of the Delaware Water Gap. Each time we reach a view point it gets better and the pinnacle juts out to offer a 200 degree view of the gap.
After the hike, it's a good thing you just exercised because its on to the most perfect piece of pie heaven you will ever find. I am serious. I love pie and this little shop is one of the most beautiful tributes to life well lived I can ever imagine. Pie everywhere: apple pie, pecan pie, peanut butter pie, shoo fly pie, chocolate walnut pie, pumpkin pie. Imagine a farmer's market where every single table is absolutely covered with pie. I am welling up with tears of joy just thinking about it.
Price includes, pie, guides certified in wilderness first aid, snacks and water.
Max is 20 people. First 20 to pay go. I have payments from:
Why do we put a limit on the number of people for hikes? Three reasons; safety, conservation and fun.
We limit the number to promote safety. If there are too many people, it becomes too hard to keep track of those people. We would not want to go in with 50 and out with 48.
Plus, though many of the trails we take are very well established, we want to limit our impact on the environment. So, it is much better for us to go in with 15 people and not tromp 50 in all at once.
Finally, I think bringing a giant heard of people into the woods ruins one of the fundamental reasons we go into the woods, the peace and intimacy of nature. I love the quiet and the possibility of seeing wild animals. Large groups are loud and intrusive and diminish the very reasons we go. So, that is why we limit our group size.
