Hike the Spring Creek Greenway Trail at Hadley Valley, 4 miles

Due to all the recent rain, we'll avoid natural surface paths and stay on this crushed rock path for this week's hike.

It is expected to be in the high 50s, dry and mostly sunny on Thursday so let's venture out into sun.

This is a 4-mile out-and-back at the Hadley Valley Bruce Road Access, NOT the loop where we usually start at Gougar Road. You can hike more at the Hadley Valley loop or less as you wish. The trail is wide, crushed stone, pretty much all grassland but nice. There are not many hills, only gentle slopes.
