Morgan Creek Preserve is a beautiful area right in our "backyard". Part of the trail runs along Morgan Creek and the other part over-looks a pasture filled with green grass and trees in the distance. We will hike all the way to NC Botanical Garden, walk in the garden and then back, approximately in 3.5 hours (about 7-8 miles). Trail might be muddy and slippery after recent rain. Hiking boots are highly recommended.

Note: we have to cross over several pine lines! Check last time's pictures for pine line: http://hiking.meetup....


Direction:
Meet at the parking lot right across street from Merritts Store & Grill

    I would come, and had 5 others who would have but on sunday these hikes should be after Church, not before, and you'd have more people.
