THE HIKE:
 |
From the huge parking lot, head towards the path straight ahead.
|
 |
The path veers to the left and ends at the street but just the other side of those huge boulders ...
|
 |
... is the Middlesex Greenway entrance.
|
 |
Looking to the left there were tons of people, to the right only a couple of bicycles so we headed west and other than a bicycle here and there, ran into nobody else.
|
 |
Balloon #7 of the year.
|
 |
A couple of apartment complexes along the way have direct access to the greenway.
|
 |
A little turn around circle at the 3.5 mile marker at the end of the greenway ...
|
 |
... or the beginning at mile 0 heading back.
|
 |
They do a nice job of keeping the graffiti painted over.
|
 |
Can't miss the way back to Dudash Park on the left.

The Elk Pen parking lot was pretty much full today. On a Tuesday! What's with all of these people hiking on weekdays?
ReplyDeleteI know! It's crazy. I used to hike during the week when I was laid off several years ago and always ran into other laid off hikers. Maybe with all of the unemployment everyone is hiking at Harriman.
DeleteGreat hike mates!! Love the spring flowers.
ReplyDeleteYes, spring is springing around here!
