If you wanted to spend Halloween in the Catskills with other dope women of color complete with abandoned ruins, a fire tower, and killer views, then we’ve got you.

About the trail: (Moderate) The Overlook Mountain Trail is said to be one of the most popular hikes in the Catskills. But what really caught my eye was how nature has reclaimed an abandoned hotel on the trail. The mountain backdrop is going to be worth the trek up. Check this blog out if you want a play by play. Plus, the trail is only 15 minutes away from Woodstock in case you want to get a bit to eat in town after the hike.

Mood: This is the second Full Moon this month. It’s also Halloween, the end of the month and the next day is Dia de los Muertos.

Important updates: If you’ve come to other hikes you know we could be a group of 5 or 25 BUT because Covid-19 (see more updates below), there’ll be no more than 10-12 people per hike to give us ample room to be socially distant.

• Must wear face masks (and wear them properly)

• Must stay 6 feet apart

• Must be in good health

• Must be okay with getting their temperature checked via our handy forehead thermometer

Bring your own snacks and water. I’ll be sending out an email 3 days prior and then the night before all with information on how to prep, what to pack, and more.

Refunds are not available but you can transfer your ticket to someone else. If it rains, the hike will be rescheduled for the following day.
