Let's hike the White Pine trail starting at the Rockford Footwear Depot.
Details
Let's meet in the parking lot at the Rockford Footwear Depot and hike north on the White Pine trail.
The address is 235 N Main St in Rockford.
Afterwards we can have lunch in Rockford if anyone would like to do so.
The White Pine trail is totally paved in this section. I don't typically use trekking poles on paved/dirt trails, but feel free to bring them. That way your arms will get a better work out !
We'll go out and hike for a little over an hour, take a snack break, and then turn around and hike back. We usually do about five to six miles total.
We hike at a fairly decent pace since the trail is paved - around 2.8-3 mph. If you want to go at a slower pace, that's absolutely fine. There is no way to get lost as long as you stay on the paved trail.
I take a water break about every 20 minutes or so.
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.
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.
If you're unsure of where the meeting location is, please call/text me BEFORE the hike is scheduled to start.
See you on the trails !!
