SUMMARY:Waterfall Rappelling in the Catskills
DESCRIPTION:RESCHEDULED: Join Sync Recovery for a truly unforgettable and breathtaking experience: Waterfall Rappelling in the Catskills, led by the awesome (and certified!) guides from Stay Rad Climbing Guides ( https://njrockclimbing.com/ )!\nMeeting location: Elka Park, NY – Huckleberry Point Trailhead. Guides will meet you at the Information sign in the parking area. https://maps.app.goo.gl/gRujpAEkhqSe5Nxp6 ( https://maps.app.goo.gl/gRujpAEkhqSe5Nxp6 )\nWaivers: Each participant in the group must complete an e-waiver no later than the night prior to the trip. The waiver can be found here: https://app.waiverelectronic.com/render/templateByRefId/68997262da25b5deb43bd9b8  ( https://app.waiverelectronic.com/render/templateByRefId/68997262da25b5deb43bd9b8 )\nWhat to bring: No drawstring style backpacks are allowed. Whistle (required) Trail snacks, 2-3 liters of water, sunscreen, bug spray, personal first aid items (EpiPen, inhaler, meds, etc.), change of clothes, towel. Water shoes or old sneakers to rappel in are helpful. Pack all of these items in a small backpack so you are “hands free” for the hike into the waterfall. A drybag is a great option as to not get your belongings wet during the trip. There is no changing room/area as this trip is in the middle of the woods. You’ll have to change in your vehicle or in a secluded area. Please keep Leave No Trace in mind when participating on our trips/courses. Whatever you bring into the woods should leave with you.\nWhat to wear: NO SANDALS OR OPEN-TOED SHOES ALLOWED! Dress for the weather but keep in mind that you WILL be getting wet while rappelling. A wet suit is recommended but not required. Rain gear will keep you warm and drier…especially during the chillier months of the spring and fall. Avoid baggy clothing, jeans and cotton. Cotton does not dry quickly and can be uncomfortable when wet. Polyester or quick dry, wicking clothing is best. Water shoes with hard bottoms or old sneakers will be fine for the rappelling portion but must have adequate ankle support for the hiking portion of the trip. Shoes MUST be closed-toed style. The trail to the falls is short and steep so be sure to wear appropriate footwear for hiking. The trail out of the canyon is steep, rocky and has sections that are washed out. Stable footwear is a must.\nFitness Level: Participants should be in good general health with the ability to maintain balance, hike on steep rocky terrain and have a good baseline level of fitness.\nWhat is NOT allowed: NO pets of any kind are allowed. If you bring a pet you will not be allowed to participate. NO DRUGS OR ALCOHOL! No denim/jeans, bikinis or similar low profile bathing suits, open-toed shoes or sandals, spectators, firearms, weapons, fireworks, drones. We have had wardrobe malfunctions in the past, so avoid excessively loose-fitting clothes, low-cut shirts, bikini tops or loose fitting swimwear.\nNearby Hotels: Catskill Mountain Lodge, The Clark House Bed & Breakfast, Brookside Bed & Breakfast, Hunter Mountain Hotel, Saugerties Howard Johnson and Saugerties Comfort Inn.\nDue to rescheduling, 4 additional spots have become available!\nPlease note that this event may involve physically strenuous activity. We encourage all participants to evaluate their current physical condition, abilities, and comfort level before attending. By participating, individuals acknowledge that they are doing so voluntarily and at their own risk. We recommend listening to your body, taking breaks as needed, and consulting a medical professional if you have any concerns about participating.\n\nPlease create a profile ( https://syncrecovery.org/add-profile/ ) or log in ( https://syncrecovery.org/wp-login.php ) to register for this event.\n
