Mt. Beacon Fire Tower

08/21/15

Great day trip! Little steep and rocky at some points but the views are defiantly worth the hike up. Even though this adventure is labeled as intermediate I saw many young kids today on the trail and doing just fine, great trip for a family. I also brought my dog and he loved it. If you are able to make your way to the fire tower after spending some time at the ruins I would highly recommend it. Very cool 360 degree view and we went up to the top of the fire tower where you can see everything, even the NYC skyline! But it was very windy today so be careful up there, yet sturdy enough. Have fun.

Hike Dover's Stone Church

08/16/15

I came here yesterday with some friends and it was really cool. The Trail Head was a little hard to find but it was just north of the Elementary school across the street with the traffic light. (my GPS wasn't very accurate). Defiantly would go again and suggest exploring around. My friends and I hiked around to the back of the cave as well and there are some neat private waterfalls back there too. NOTE: the cave with the waterfall is not on any of the marked trails, just follow the path next to the stream! (We were a little confused at first)
