[**Monday / MLK Day**] Little Red Lighthouse - 6 Miles
This is an Out-and-Back urban adenture with some twists at both ends. We begin at the Fort Lee Historic Park with its stunning views of the Hudson riverscape, the Manhattan Skyline, and the George Washington Bridge. We will walk from the Park to the George Washington Bridge (North) Pedestrian Access (Note: The South-side sidewalk on GWB is currently closed), and walk across the bridge to Manhattan, and then walk under the GW Bridge through the Fort Washington Park to the Little Red Lighthouse. On the way back, we will have an optional meander through 181st Street with its many resaturants, and ahem, a Starbucks. Optional "apres hike" lunch / early dinner at one of the korean restaurants that Fort Lee is known for.

SPECIAL NOTE ON PARKING: The Fort Lee Historic Park is part of the Palisades Interstate System, and has the same parking regulations as "State Line Lookout" parking farther north. It will most likely be \*free\* for MLK Day.

Bring plenty of water and snacks, and appropriate seasonal items (sun- and insect-protection in summer, and crampons in winter). Day-of-hike-only phone: 973-704-7362.
