Midweek Ricketts Glen Day Hike (7-8 miles)

I'm hoping to miss the crowds and hike this on a Tuesday. We will meet at the parking lot on Route 118 and hike the lollipop loop north and then clockwise to view all 21 waterfalls of Ricketts Glen. Trail conditions are likely to be muddy and slick and therefore sturdy hiking boots are required, and trekking poles are suggested. We will be taking our time to enjoy the waterfalls and the views and I'm expecting this to take a full day. Bring at least 2L of water plus lunch/snacks. Heavy rains or thunderstorms will cancel. If it is of interest, we can also explore the <1 mile loop on the south side of Route 118.
