Introduction

Hi folks, I'm a retired engineer and worked for the Metro Parks for nine years. I like outdoor activities and learning by meeting new interesting people.

Where is your favorite hiking location within the Miami Rivers (Little and Great Miami watersheds) area?

Don't have any yet.

Are you looking for day hikes, backpacking trips, or a mixture of both?

Just day hikes.

Are you looking for this group to help you complete the Williamsburg, Loveland, Caesar Creek, and Troy sections of the Buckeye Trail?

Not sure.

Would you be interested in joining the occasional trail maintenance event?

Don't know.

Are you currently a member of the Buckeye Trail Association?

No.

  • Hi John, and welcome to my group. As you can see we're quite active and have 8 meet ups so far this year. Keep an eye out as I'm always scheduling something.

    See you on the water

  • Hi John, it was nice meeting you at the Serpent Mound hike. What a wonderful day! Kate [masked]

  • I'd be happy to ride with you, or to follow in my car. I haven't had much luck meeting-up at faraway places with the Paddle MeetUp group. But, I'd like to hike.

    I'm also hoping that the pace isn't too fast.
