2-10 miles or maybe more at Griffy Lake Nature Preserve in Bloomington

This was a lot of fun last time. I think we ended up with about 8 miles with an unexpected shower thrown in to cool us off. We will start out with a little climb up the hiking trail, cross the road and follow the north shore trail to the dam, then tromp around the trails on the other side before making it back to the parking lot. The north shore trail is a bit more rugged than the rest of thee trails but quite manageable .Might total ten miles with options for shorter cutoffs at 2 and 3 miles
Maybe the colors will be pretty halfway through October
The real adventurers will complete the North Shore Trail all the way to the dam , cross the dam to the new loop and back to parking for a total of at least ten miles.( Actual mileage tbd)

I love a little post hike beverage / meal and a chance to get to know each other when we don’t have to look at our feet, so we will decide on location during the hike or i will add something here
