Hey all,Although I try to move in a totally different direction every week, I have been made aware that old friend RJ Morholt will be hosting a small get together which is just a short distance off of the Horseshoe Trail in the Furnace Hills, conveniently near the date I had originally planned it for! Therefore, we shift the date somewhat!
Lancaster County.
We will be meeting at 9 am at Pumping Station Road at the following GPS coordinates, just south of Rt 322.
To get there from Philly area, it is just off interstate 76, but there is no exit. You'll need to figure out the nearest parallel route and exit. Coming from NJ, take 78 west to 501 south, turn right on 322, then left on Pumping Station Road (it also goes north, don't go that way.). Parking will be on the left after a bit.
Lattitude: 40°14'19.22"N
Longitude: 76°20'11.84"W
This site is also the northern terminus of the Conestoga Trail.
After meeting here, we will shuttle as few cars as possible east to Denver PA. The Horseshoe Trail is a good way to experience PA Dutch country, and has pleasant back roads, nice ridges, and trail sections that aren't too difficult. There are a few good views, and reportedly at least one swimming hole!
One of the great views is known as Eagle Rock.
At the end of the hike, we'll hang out with RJ at his campout area, a private tract on a cool piece of woodlands.
