Pilcher Park Hike from Greenhouse, 4 or 5 miles, Mostly Shady

Details

The weather on Thursday is going to be in the high 70s and sunny but with a 24% chance of rain at 5:00. So, we'll hike in the shade of Pilcher Park. Be prepared by bringing water, perhaps a hat, perhaps bug spray, and rain gear, just in case.

This is a little different take on our usual Pilcher hike. We will still start at the Greenhouse, hike to the nature center and to points north for a total of 4 to 5 miles. We will use some single-track trails both going and coming back.

Note that we'll be parking by the Greenhouse on Gouger Rd rather than at the Nature Center where we more often start. There are restrooms by the Greenhouse and at the Nature Center.
