Oakbrook Vista Trail and Sandstone Ridge Road

Come join me on Wednesday, May 7, for an intermediate evening hike!

Did this a few weeks ago but want to see if more of the flowers came out and worth hiking again!

We will hike to the crest of the ridge to get a good workout and also some beautiful views.

Beginners may have a difficult time due to the steepness, so do not say I did not warn you if you choose to attend!
We will only stop briefly to catch our breath and then take a short break at the turnaround point.
You can hike at your own pace just do not expect us to wait for you or to catch up to you if you are faster.
There are some turn offs that I would advise turning around at so you do not get lost (especially in the dark) if you are unfamiliar with the trail.

There should still be some beautiful green hills and wildflowers on this hike!
