I am an early morning person ( if you haven't gathered that by now) so I plan on being there around 8:00 AM. Meeting area would be here (https://www.google.com/maps/search/...11430!3s0x89c26650d5404947:0xec4fb213489f11f0) in the parking lot.
There are a lot of areas to film here, but there is also a lot of hiking involved, so keep that in mind.
Change in location: Now I plan on going to Caleb Smith State Park located here (https://www.google.com/maps/place/C...2!3m1!1s0x89e83a7cc06b024f:0xd00008f29f2e5135) I am checking on seeing what time I can gain access to the park, as I would rather be there earlier than 8 AM.
Hey let me know what time your going down there. Sounds like fun! We are suppose to have great weather with almost no wind!
It looks like a perfect day is in store.... I contacted Caleb Smith Park, the earliest we can arrive would be when they open the gates at 8 A.M., so I am shooting for then. I am going to shoot you a PM here with my name and contact info so if you do go we can meet up!
Anyone else interested? It's a beautiful park!
I suggest you bring bug spray, good walking shoes/boots and a traditional camera. A tripod would be great for catching your quad in frame. ( I plan on schlepping one so we can share)
Here is a link to the Caleb Smith Trail map ( http://nysparks.com/parks/attachments/CalebSmithTrailMap.pdf) which is goo to have with you.
I plan on meeting up at the parking lot by Willow Pond off of Jericho turnpike ( Main entrance). If it's your first time there, it's a bit tricky to find and that stretch of Jericho is notoriously dangerous so be careful.
