Details

Let's hike the lovely trails on the NCT out by the river in Lowell.

There are quite a few hills on the trail, so I highly recommend trekking poles.

We'll go out and hike for an hour, take a longer break, and then hike back. I also take "catch your breath" breaks as needed !

We hike at a moderate pace - about 2.5 mph including breaks.

I always bring water and something to snack on.

If you've never been on an organized hike before, please give us a try. Our motto is "hike your own hike", so you're welcome whatever your pace is.

As always, I recommend that you bring up the trail map on AllTrails BEFORE you get to the trailhead. You never know when you might have to make your way back to the parking lot by yourself.

We'll often go out to lunch after our hikes. I won't be able to on this hike, but some of the others might.

I'll have a dark blue Honda Accord. Please text me at 616 446 8102 if you're running late. We can wait for you.

IMPORTANT: It's hunting season in Michigan. Right now it's bow season. I don't hike during rifle season. I HIGHLY recommend that you wear some item of clothing that is BRIGHT ORANGE.

See you on the trails !!
