Cell service can be spotty, so be sure to:

✔️ Save the trailhead location ahead of time
We will meet at the trail’s starting point at 11 AM before starting the loop.

Stone Mountain Loop is rated Moderate on AllTrails.
Expect:
- Steady elevation gain
- Rocky sections
- A few slick spots if the weather has been wet
- Gorgeous views atop the granite dome
If you’re newer to hiking, this is a great challenge — but please be honest about your fitness level so the group stays together comfortably.

## 💧 What to Bring
Hydrate well in the days leading up to the hike.
For the hike itself, bring:
- 1–2 liters of water

## 🍽️ Post-Hike Food (Vibe-Based Plan)
We’ll probably grab food after the hike somewhere nearby —
options and cell service may vary, so we'll just go with the vibes and see what’s open and looks good.
Great chance to socialize and relax after the climb.8 attendees
