A bicycle hike down the backroad to Otego was just the beginning. The November hike to the Vlei proved both edu– cational and enjoyable; clubbers learned of the Sun– dew and discovered a patch of cranberries which they picked and later transformed into cranberry jelly with the aid of Mrs. Koenig's bunsen burner. The last of the winter outings found carefree but chilly hikers roasting hot dogs by the table rocks in back of Hartwick College on a February afternoon. A1))'il saw the group packed for an overnight at Gifford Hill, ana the sojourn at Whetstone Gulf June 3-5 climaxed the Outing Club activities.
