Come join us as we hike up to the boulder field along the Devil's half-acre trail at Sourland Mountain Preserve. We will rest and have a BYO snack sitting on the boulders before we head back down the mountain. This hike is lead by GSHNJ Trailblazer Girl Scouts who are leading this hike as part of our Summer Hike series to develop their leadership skills and support our Trailblazer programming!
