April 6, 2013: Fourteen of us met on this early spring weather perfect day to hike the Stillman Trail from Mountain Road to Route 9W, offering along the way several beautiful views of the Hudson River, on to Butter Hill where we enjoyed a lunch break overlooking the Hudson River. While sharing lively conversations, delicious homemade treats (smoked sausage and jerky) were passed around by some participants.

Yet another very enjoyable outing in the beautiful Hudson Valley as commented by
some of the participants: “A lovely hike with a very friendly and welcoming group!”; “The
members of ADK are all very friendly and welcoming.” –Hike leader Jean-Claude Fouere.
