On Saturday, Aug. 23, from 10 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., two adult-led groups of teens will go on an orienteering hiking expedition to the South Redoubt. Problem-solving skills, teamwork, and a sense of adventure will help teens crack the navigational code.

Matt Decker, Hudson Highlands Land Trust stewardship coordinator, and Kali Bird, Hike New York outdoor guide and education specialist, will lead two teams separately on an adventure ending at the Redoubt. Is your teen up for the challenge?

The program is designed for children ages 12 through 16. The fee is $10, and no previous orienteering experience is necessary. Participants will be given details upon registration. They should wear appropriate hiking footwear, and bring a daypack with lunch and plenty of water. Pre-registration is required. Email [email protected] or call 845-424-3358, ext. 7 to reserve a space.
