Details

Looks like i deleted this somehow! Oops! I will be cross posting in Cincinnati backpackers meetup as well.
This is an overnight backpacking trip (beginner friendly) out to hansons point on the first day, and back to the cars on the second day stopping at Gray's arch.
Day 1- meet at the park and ride parking lot next to the Go Time gas station at the slade exit at 10am. We will arrange car pooling from there to the trail head. If you're parking your car at the trail head, you will need to purchase an overnight pass from the gas station. We will drive out to the Gray's arch parking lot, and begin our 3 mile hike out to hansons point. This is a ridge top campsite, so please bring plenty of water for the evening and morning the next day.

Day2- hike the 4 miles back to the cars, stopping at Gray's arch along the way. There is a water source along the way to top off our water bottles.

This is an overnight backpacking trip, so please bring with you all the food, water, clothing, shelter, and gear to keep you comfortable in the back country with changing weather conditions. If you have any questions at all, please feel free to ask. Thanks!
