hyla, do you have a 50 mile badge? (or badges) NY trailwalkers (and other organizations,) offer badges to add to your pack for every 50 mile (and no, i haven't done 50 miles,) but i have walked some of the tail,(no more than 10 miles) where it passes through Bear Mountain State Park (Hi Rubrick!)and i've walked abit up in the white mountains (NH)-- but walk isn't the word to use with the White mountains!

there are some nice simple caves (been spelunking too) along the train in Bear Mountain park.



my other obsession
