First Steps: New Hiking SIG Hits the Trail

On June 1, ten members of the newly launched RAH Hiking SIG gathered for the group's first outing—a 3.4-mile loop on the Blue Trail Loop at Mills Norrie State Park in Staatsburg. The trail winds through historic estate grounds, past stone ruins, and opens up to sweeping views of the Hudson River.

It was a lovely woodland walk on a beautiful early June morning—a perfect kickoff for the new group. If you'd like to get notices about future hikes, sign up for the Hiking SIG here.
