The portal to the Upper Barton Creek Greenbelt is reopening again. But our Tuesday meanderings will now be on Wednesdays!

It seems likely that the pace of this hike may be slower than our previous moderate pace. The good thing, though, is that there is still some water in the creek (though not a lot).

This will be around a 4-5 mile hike over hilly terrain with uneven surfaces. Our pace will be moderate but you need to be in decent hiking shape and be able to keep up (though we won't leave anybody behind). Expect this hike to take **around** **3.25 hours** with one or two breaks.

NOTE: Many of the trails are steep, rooty and rocky (“technical”) and may contain obstacles including trees with low branches, rocks and boulders, ledges, obscure roots and loose gravel. After a rain there may be standing water and mud. Rocks and roots can be very slippery. Attendance is your acknowledgment of the potential risks and acceptance that anything can happen at anytime for any reason. If you lack hiking experience or have balance or health issues this Meetup is not for you.

Proper preparation is essential. Eat breakfast - your body is an engine that needs fuel to perform. You should bring water and consider a snack, hat, walking stick, sunscreen, bug spray and clothing that “wicks.” I always wear water-proof hiking boots for foot protection and stability. A rewarding hiking experience comes from being well prepared and having the right equipment.

ALL hikers must sign a liability release/waiver prior to hiking.
