Details

Join us for a walk to the Eno River Quarry in Durham. This hike will be a little shorter than we typically do (about 2.5 miles total) so we'll spend a little more time by the quarry for our reading break. Bring something to sit on and something to read, and enjoy the reflections on the water and good company on a winter afternoon. The trail does have some elevation changes and a stepping-stone creek crossing, but nothing too difficult.

We'll meet at 3:00pm on Sunday December 7 at the parking lot for the Eno Quarry Trailhead, which is at the Cabe Lands Access for Eno River State Park. 4950 Howe St, Durham, NC 27705 https://maps.app.goo.gl/k9U6q4RRfUWLZYKKA

We'll get started a few minutes after 3:00pm and will be back at the parking lot by around 5:00pm.

We’ll still plan to walk if it’s drizzling or raining lightly. But if there’s heavy rain or other extreme weather in the forecast, we’ll reschedule and send a notice by the morning of the event to people who have registered.

We hope to see some of the "regulars" there, and to meet new folks! This group is a great way to meet people who both enjoy walking in nature and reading and talking about books and ideas.
A couple of other notes:

  • If you sign up and later realize you can no longer come, please change your RSVP to indicate that, so it will open up your space for someone on the waitlist. If you're on the waitlist, check Meetup and your notifications up to the day before the event, because often people drop out late and spaces open up at the last minute.
  • Participation in this hike and any of the events organized by this group are at your own risk. These hikes are on public and well-used trails, but there may be dangers like tripping over tree roots, snake or insect bites, poison ivy, or other unpredictable risks. By joining this event you agree not to hold the organizers responsible for any injuries, and that you understand that you participate at your own risk.

See you soon!
