	Mohonk Preserve ideal for outdoor enthusiasts
		The Mohonk Preserve is part of the northern Shawangunk Mountains in Ulster County -- a 38-square mile natural area comprising almost 25,000 acres of semi-wilderness land used by hikers, bird watchers, climbers, skiers and other outdoor enthusiasts.
		Visitors to the Preserve are warned against walking across the golf course between April 1 and Nov. 15 because of the danger of being struck by a golf ball.
		Your Preserve entry permit entitles you to hike on Preserve and Mohonk resort lands; this hiking privilege does not include parking at the resort's gatehouse, nor does it allow access to the Mountain House or its facilities including the lake.
