- Food

- Water 

-Gloves- In case it gets cooler towards late afternoon or on trail.

(Probably won't be necessary but just in case)

-Layers, fleece (which you had already mentioned)

 

Please note: 

We won't be returning to the point where we started. We are hiking to Cold Springs so if anyone plans on driving they should be aware of this. They can drive to Cold Springs and take train one stop to Breakneck Ridge stop. They should check train schedule. Make sure they are in last car!

 

Whoever drives to Breakneck is responsible for getting their car after hiking.

If everyone will be leaving from GC, then disregard above.

 

Tickets: 

At Grand Central - Only buy ONE WAY to Breakneck Ridge Stop   

We will get return tickets at Cold Springs (There are ticket machines on the platform).

 

On trail: expect Mtn elevation to be est.1200ft. On a clear day we just might be able to see Manhattan in distance. What a view! (no guarantees on this : ) 

 

I have a pretty good idea what trails to take to maximize scenic views. Of course there are many trails and can only do one a at time.
