With eight fords of North River, it can be a challenge when the water is high. From the parking area head down the yellow blazed connector trail as it descends steeply to the purple blazed North River Gorge Trail in 0.1 miles. Turn left on the purple blazed trail and ford North River in 200 yards. NOTE: You are required to ford North River 9 more times in the final 4.2 mile section of this hike.
Daylight Saving vs. Standard Time. When including time zones, many writers in the United States prefer to specify whether it is Daylight Saving or Standard Time (abbreviated EDT and EST, respectively, for the Eastern time zone). Daylight Saving Time, which refers to when we âspring aheadâ by one hour, begins in the U.S. in late winter. It ends during fall when we switch to Standard Time by âfalling backâ one hour. You can learn more about Daylight Saving Time, including upcoming beginning and end dates at timeanddate.com/time/dst.
What Is Daylight Saving Time? DST is a seasonal time change measure where clocks are set ahead of standard time during part of the year, usually by 1 hour. As DST starts, the Sun rises and sets later, on the clock, than the day before. Today, about 40% of countries worldwide use it to make better use of daylight and to conserve energy.
