**Comments:** Don’t let the fact that this starts on Hard Times Road fool you… it’s an easy trail, as we’ll only be on Hard Times for a short time. The trail goes around Lake Powhatan, and we’ll have some reflection time on or near the beach there. Lots of opportunities for further hiking when we’re done, to include going into the Arboretum.

Trail Magic Kindness is appropriate for this month since we've been talking about KINDNESS. After the hike, we'll grab a bite to eat and head off to a place on the Appalachian Trail near Hot Springs to hand out drinks and snacks to the through-hikers! Feel free to bring your own cooler or you can help me, Holly, hand out the magic of an unexpected kindness! Bring a chair! Let's spread a little love to those hikers!

Nice cardio-hike up the summit of Bailey Mountain. Doing the loop results in a 5 mile hike. You can optionally do this as an out-and-back up to the summit for a 4 mile hike. See https://www.alltrails.com/explore/trail/us/north-carolina/bailey-mountain-summit-via-richard-l-hoffman-trail for this option. The bulk of the elevation gain occurs during the first 2 miles up to the summit, so you'll do that regardless of the option you choose.
