Mornings just aren’t the same when @LydiaSP613 isn't around!

I know it's not the same, but good morning from your neighbor state.

Thinking of putting 35's on my Rubi and just called my dealer to see what they charge to re calibrate the speedometer. $109! Must be a minimim labor charge. Ridiculous!

All good. Have a great day. I like your avatar, glad you didn't jump.

Ha ha those views make me want to fly rather than jump!
A friend took a picture of me taking a picture at the top of our hike. Good memories.

Maybe reach out to see if any fellow Jeepers in your area have a programmer?

Which hike is that? My friends and I do trails in the Hudson River Valley all the time...

After 203 days, my JL Rubicon (ordered January 29) has FINALLY ARRIVED! I absolutely love it and it was well worth the 8 month wait. Icing on the cake is that it came pre-loaded with off-road pages! Managed to grab a couple pics with the new Jeep sitting next to my old 2012 JKU Arctic before trading it in. Will miss that Jeep a lot.

That was Huckleberry Point (the trailhead is on Platte Clove Rd). Short and sweet, with nice open views at the top.

What are some of your favorite hikes in the area? Once I finally get my 2-door* I’ll have to figure out if there are some harder-to-access hikes I should look into.

* I had to work a 2-door reference in there to loosely stay on topic

-Kaaterskill Falls is a nice quick hike with a great reward at the end (the Falls).
-The Palisades in NJ/NY are great if you are up for a challenge. You'll be winded when you're done.
-Mt. Beacon Fire Tower offers amazing views of the Valley
-Mohonk Preserve (pricey at ~$15 a person IIRC), but has a fun/crazy vertical rock scramble up Bonticou Crag

We've also done a few trails on/around Bear Mountain, including the mountain itself, Bull Hill, and Breakneck Ridge.

At the end of every hike, we reward ourselves with a meal and beers from a local brewery.
