Overlook Mountain

February 2, 2024

Led by trip leaders Avalon Johnson and Kat Christy, the Outing Club took it's first ever hiking trip! Students got to visit Overlook Mountain in Woodstock, a 40-mile drive from Marist.

Outing Club members hiked 5 miles to explore the snowy Catskills, encountering ruins of the Overlook Mountain House, a hotel built in the early 1800s. Students also got to climb the Overlook Fire Tower.

"I had so much fun! The trip leaders, Avalon and Kat, are so awesome and did such a good job!" —Kristen Fitzgibbon, '26
