Late last week, members of Pok-O-Moonshine’s Advanced Section arose from their campsite at 2:00 in the morning, in order to take part in a full moon climb to New York’s highest point, the summit of 5344-foot Mount Marcy.

“It was definitely worth waking up early for,” stated Jacob F, who was moved enough by the experience to write an original poem. “One of the coolest things I’ve ever done,” is how Anthony phrased it.
Pok-O-MacCready is all about trying new, natural things and for Elrick, this unique trip did not disappoint. “First the full moon, then the sunrise. I’ve never done anything like this before!”
