It was a rainy March day, and weather was unseasonably warm. It wasn't raining at the moment, so I took the opportunity to hike during the lull in the rain. I parked at the Reeves Meadow area, the busiest area in Harriman, but due to the rainy weather it was exceptionally quiet. 

I took the Pine Meadow Trail to the Stony Brook Trail, and then took the Connector Trail up the hill to the Pine Meadow Trail. I then took the Pine Meadow Trail back to my car.
