Summer Friday Group Hike to Kaaterskill Falls

A 1-in-1,000-year storm dropped 8 inches of water in the area a few days before we arrived. ⁠
⁠
It flooded streets. It threw a monkey wrench into local businesses. And it did this to Kaaterskill Falls...⁠
⁠
I've been here too many times to count over the last few years. I've seen these falls covered in ice. I've seen it with a gentle trickle. But this is the first time I've ever this.⁠
⁠
And apparently, it's going to happen again. As a New Yorker, I'm seeing how this crazy weather is impacting our local neighborhoods and streets. We've got twisters and rivers flowing across NYC streets, fam. Just saying...⁠
⁠
Collecting trash and recycling ain't helping.⁠
⁠
Demanding politicians do something ain't helping.⁠
⁠
Changing our buying behavior and carpooling ain't helping.⁠
⁠
WTF. What can we as an outdoorsy group do to rebalance and restore our outdoors? ⁠
⁠
What do you all say?⁠
