This is a beginner friendly hike so nobody will be left behind! My pace is slow but steady. For some it is too slow, but I do try to push myself as best I can.
If you are interested in the 11-mile option, be at the Leif Erikson Trailhead located off of Germantown Rd at approximately 1:00 pm. Time is only an estimate so text me at 5034880535 to confirm my arrival time. At the end of the hike I will be able to give you a ride back to your vehicle.
My hikes are cannabis friendly.
Dogs are welcome.
Please remember that I'm simply a volunteer inviting others to join in on a hike, I'm not a professional guide nor do I receive compensation for leading this hike. I must insist that everybody be responsible for their own safety and well-being.
