* Sunset - 4:42. This is a regular Spencer's Butte Sunset Hike every week on Wednesday evening. Each hike will officially leave about one hour before sunset, although you can start earlier or later and join the group at the top. I seldom cancel any hikes regardless of the weather. If you go on all of these, you'll be in shape before you know it! No need to wait for me or anyone else at the parking lot unless you want to. I'll leave at the designated time and we'll all meet at the top. (Note: don't go alone unless you know the trail well.) We'll take the main trail, so go straight ahead from the parking lot (don't take the trail on the left). Walk 1/2 mile and stay left at the trail junction. Then it's 1/2 mile to the top, with 800 feet elevation gain. Civil twilight, bright enough to see, only lasts about 30 minutes after sunset. So be sure to bring a headlamp or a flashlight, since we'll be walking the last part in the dark. On the way down, at the trail junction, stay to the right. For safety, please walk with at least one other person, and bring your cell phone and water. If you're the second to the last person, make sure to stay with the last person! Leashed dogs are welcome. Getting together after the hike at a restaurant or bar is encouraged. See you this Wednesday.
