- Prerequisites
- A love of blueberries (or an appreciation of those who do love them), and a tolerance for cold (current forecasts include an expected windchill of -27F!).
We will be hiking the oft-attempted, occasionally-conquered Blueberry Ridge Trail to summit Mt. Whiteface (4020'). The hike will include blueberry-themed foods, excellent viewpoints, and a scramble up the rocky ledges that the trail is named for. The hike is 7.8 miles with 2850 ft of elevation gain. Bonus points are awarded to anyone who brings a blueberry recipe (http://allrecipes.com/search/results/?wt=blueberries&sort=re).
