You know that they have winter in Maryland.

Very tempting I must say!

You know that they have winter in Maryland.

While this is true, the temps range as much as 10* warmer, the likelihood of a freeze-out is minimal, and I get to sleep indoors!!! I also think fate is trying to tell me something about steering clear of Harriman! I'll miss you guys, but I'm more confident I'll actually get to make this hike!

wild goats? took friend of mine section hiking in through there about 4 years ago. we seen a goat come out from under a rock cropping near black rocks, we just assumed he was a escapee from a nearby Farm in the valley.

I do believe that's their origin, but it's been many generations since the first nanny-scape. They're feral now.....though not aggressive.

[Kaptainkriz]

Been through there a number of times and never got to see the goats. Is there any particular area they hang out at most?

Does one need to register for this hike or just show up? Thanks and Merry Christmas

[Teacher & Snacktime]

No, there's no need to register, though if you think you're a YES then I'll add you to the list at the beginning so others have an idea of who's who. Also, If you PM me with contact info, I'll reply with same, and you'll be sure to get updates if the plans change, etc. We'd love to see you there!

Hey, I can't be two places at once!

I'm sure Overload would make you guys a cheesecake, you could pick it up on the way thru town.

Oh Lou, that would be the sweetest thing ever! I'll be riding through on 1/11 if you think she'd really have the time. It would be a cool thing to bring to and share with Farmer Chef and his family, who'll be housing us on this adventure.

It will never last the 6 days before the Stroll........+

[Teacher & Snacktime]

True, but it will make it to Farmer Chef's kitchen where we'll all pig out! It would be great to have for the gathering hike....I suppose I could store it in the fridge.....but boy would that temptation be great!

Well, if she does find the time and inclination, then this party changes from BYOF to BOC (Bring Overload's Cheesecake)!
