NEW STARTING LOCATION! EASY HIKE! Read below!
Details
UPDATE PLEASE READ: NEW STARTING LOCATION! If you check the map on this meetup page, it will take you directly to where we are meeting going forward.
A number of people have asked to start the hike at a spot with a restroom, so we are still doing the same hike, we are just starting at a different spot.
We are meeting at Evelyn Hallman Park which is easy to get to and has way more parking than previous spots we've tried.
We will be hiking around the outside of the zoo, up to the Governor Hunts Tomb for a quick photo op, then continue along the canal and around Evelyn Hallman Pond and back to our starting spot. Should be about one and half hours total time.
This hike is rated EASY. This is an easy trail that will have minimal elevation gain with some nice vistas for photos.
Sorry about moving things around, it's been a journey to find a spot that won't be anyone's guess if there is a 5K event taking all the good parking.
Any questions call or Text me (Susan) at 480-295-9824.

There is some light construction going on around the area, but the park is still open. You just need to come in from the south not the north.
Bring water and wear sunscreen. Regular tennis shoes are fine, but no open toed sandals.
480-295-9824 if you have questions or get lost.
