NOTE: 6:00pm target gathering time with 6:15 SHARP starting time.
This weeks "weekly night hike" will take us back into the Mighty Wissahickon. We will hike some of the hillier sections of the upper Wissahickon covering over 6.5miles and 1,000+ feet of elevation.
New members read carefully: this will be a relatively quick pace (3.3+ mph average) hike with very few stops. We do our best to stick together and look out for one another. But if you are struggling, you will need to find your way back to car. Best to have a buddy if you are unsure. With that said, I am all about helping people get out of their comfort zones and taking your hiking game to next level.
Gear required: hiking footwear as there will be plenty of rocks and roots. Don't forgot some water.....:)
BRING HEADLAMP if needed. May be a little dark in woods by end of hike and water.
Light rain or shine event. Heavy rain or storms will cancel.
PARKING AND MEETING LOCATION: We will meet at the corner of W Willow Grove Ave and Cherokee Streets.....very close to Wissahickon Skating Club (see Meetup location Pin). There is parking on W Willow Grove and some other surrounding streets. Please allow time to park and get to meeting location.
