Ralph Stover State Park - High Rocks parking lot (map)
The Ralph Stover, High Rocks, Tohickon Valley Park areas are supposed to be beautiful. We will find out by exploring the area for around 4 hours. Some areas may be hilly. People also rock climb and kayak in the area.
Use this Google Map link to meet in a parking lot right next to bathrooms. The Ralph Stover map calls it Picnic Area #3. The small road, lot, and bathroom do not show on the satellite map: http://local.google.c...
There are 2 other lots in the area. Make sure to meet us at this one.
To carpool from Hill House (201 W Evergreen, 19118) meet at 1030am. Each carpooler chips in $6 at the start. Make sure to email me if you want to carpool. Here's a Google Map link to Hill House.

Bring lots of water, some food, and your camera.
Warm weather hike info:
1- Put on sun bloc before leaving home.
2- For hikes in a park it's best to wear long sleeve shirts and long pants for protection against bugs, thorn bushes, poison ivy, etc. I'm often regretful when I don't take my own advice.
3- Bring lots of water. Best to get a 3 liter hydration pack or reservoir.
4- Only a forecast of thunderstorms and torrential rains will cancel a hike. A normal rain is no problem in warm weather.
Two days before the event I usually email a weather update.
