Hike #3: Kakiat Park, Montebello NY 5/5/2013
This was a great hike! Easy for sure, but so much fun. Randi and I had explored Kakiat Park earlier this year and ended up going up the mountain and decided that would probably be too much for the boys. So we scaled it down a bit and did the relatively easy kakiat trail to old mill trail. We were going to add in a small uphill component and go up to the gas line facility and back down again, but we had so much fun exploring the old mill and playing with the dog that we kept it simple. We only had a few boys - my 2 boys and donny p. - it was a bad day with first communions and some families still a little tired from last week's hike! Lesson learned last week is that we'll have to work a bit to get families back out hiking with us, that was a hard one. This one was really a thrill,. I researched and did some water purification for this one, showing the boys how to use the tablets and and explaining that not all water can be drank straight from the river.
