Bring in the new year with a winter hike to the Big Pine Hill vista! Located in the Thornhurst Tract of the Pinchot State Forest, the pine hill vista offers 360 degree views of the Poconos (on a clear day).  We will hike an out and back round trip of 3 miles. This hike is rated as difficult due to winter conditions, terrain and elevation. The first half of the hike is a steady climb with rocky sections.

Hikers are encouraged to wear sturdy boots (bring hiking poles, if you need them) and dress for winter weather. Please arrive 15 minutes early for the hike begins promptly at 1:00 pm. The hike will be cancelled if there is inclement weather.

There is no charge for NBLT members or non-members, but registration by 5:00 pm, Thursday, January 2, is required. The participation limit is 15 attendees.
