Take me to your leader

I led two easy hikes today near Middleburgh. The first hike was up Vroman's Nose. It was a short walk to the top up an old carriageway. There were nice views from the ledges on this cool fall day.

Summit Elevation: Vromans Nose 1240 ft
Round-trip Distance: 1.8 mi
Elevation Change: 450 ft

The second hike was up to Middleburgh Cliffs. The road to the top was muddy, and unfortunately looked like it had been widened. There was also evidence of recent logging activity. Reached the top and noticed something odd ... there were power cords and christmas lights strung in the trees everywhere along the ledges. Took a different route down, which was a bit overgrown near the bottom with prickers. Stopped at the Carrot Barn on the way back for a cider donut and coffee.

Round-trip Distance: 3.0 mi
Elevation Change: 640 ft
