Exploratory hike today with Tate and friend/neighbor, Tom. Tom showed us how to navigate around the west side of PA State Game Lands 207. Observed an old RR tunnel, and industrial and residential remnants. 1500 feet of elevation change over 8 miles. Part trail, part bushwhack. Tom is about 17 years younger than me and a pretty serious trail runner and mountain biker. I felt validated that I had no trouble maintaining pace. I napped this afternoon though. Doubt if he did.
