Update: 4/11/09 - deep snow still present at Tahawus, plan for winter camping...snowshoes may be necessary to reach the campsite!

The New York Chapter of Zombie Squad will be hosting a camping trip to the ghost town of Tahawus, NY,
the weekend of April 17-19 of 2009; we hope that you will join us!
|
Tahawus was opened as a series of mines in the beginning of the 20th century, and a company town grew along with it. |
| The mine in operation in the 1940s closed essentially overnight, and the town emptied once the work disappeared. | meco grills distributor in tn commercial flame grills reviews meatl custom fire pits with grills wolf bbq grills discount used scratch dent simi truck grills viking bbq grills hong kong homemade grills craigslist fort myers ford excursion grills 2008 g35x grills smoker grills on trailers in maryland built in grills baltimore brick charcoal grills for sale in west palm beach fl horse stall grills for sale on craigslist pull behind barbecue grills grills made out of iron for security aussie barbecue grills ocean county nj pictures iron window grills and boxes gas grills denver wholesale charcoal bbq grills big industrial trailer outdoor grills commercial grills para pinchos grills with coller b b q grills for sale washington problems with brinkman grills chrome grills houston tx talapia recipe with electric grills bbq grills brick tortilla grills for sale dangers of rust on grills 1968 cadillac deville custom grills craigslist used gas grills indy tables with individual table top grills and hooded vents above cadillac grills for sale

It's incredible to find this massive construction in the middle of the woods, and to think about the processes necessary to extract iron and other metals from the ore. |

A neat open-ish house that I explored a bit the last time that I was in Tahawus...

The view from the end of County Route 25, at the parking lot where we'll meet...

The last time I was able to explore Tahawus a bit, I was with my son and we were geocaching...I was amazed at the houses up in the woods, 100-200 yards away from anything, and surrounded and overgrown by mature forest (in some cases with tress growing up inside of the house)...some of the houses seem never to have been disturbed since the owners moved out...

Walking by one of the Tahawus forest houses last time, I stepped on a rotted out metal well-cover, and when I opened up the cover to check out what it was I looked down about 8 feet to what could have been a seriously un-fun afternoon, but instead was a cool discovery...

Weather: Although mid-April is theoretically springtime, we could certainly have frost or even snow (historically, the average high for this time of year is 52 degrees, and the average low is 29 degrees, but the record high is 82degrees and the record low is 12 degrees...so be prepared for all sorts of weather). hog grills and roasters canada

Required Clothes: A waterproof layer, long underwear, good boots, a spare set of shoes, watershoes (in case we do a crossing of the Hudson River to explore the buildings on the far side, which look like they've been left mostly alone), serious work-gloves to protect your hands when/if we are exploring the ghost town.Required Gear: Tent or space in someone else's, sleeping bag (rated down to at least 20 degrees), cookset, snowshoes.
Required Food: enough to feed yourself for the weekend, there is no re-supply option close by...adequate water or water treatment capability.
Any other gear and clothes and food (and drink) that you are able to bring and/or interested in testing out will be great and add to the fun and learning...
There are lots of things that we could do, in addition to exploring the ghost-town,ast furnace, and some of the factory complex (some of it was recently purchased, and is off-limits):

Hiking a bit into the High Peaks Wilderness- Geocaching/Orienteering
- Shooting at one of the numerous sandpits in the area
- Watching scary movies into the wee-hours...a screening of "Silent Hill" down in the heart of the ghost town is one of the planned night-time activities
- Headlamp hike amongst the rotting homes of long-dead miners up in the woods
Important Note:
For those with concerns about their abilities/gear in camping, let me point out a couple of things: we'll be a short walk from vehicles, and you'll be camping with FAK-geeks who historically look out for each other quite well in extreme camping conditions...balance that against the fact we are a long-ass drive from the nearest medical facilities.
