Easy Forest Park Hike

ESTIMATED HIKING TIME: ~ 2 hr
RATING: Easy
Starting Trailhead: Leif Erikson trailhead.

Hike Description: This is an easy Forest Park hike at a relaxed pace on Saturday morning. We will meet at the gate at 9:00 AM. I think this will be a good hike if we experience some weather as the road is flat and wide.

Directions: From Highway 30, take the exit to NW Thurman Road and follow to the gate. Parking on the road.

WHAT TO BRING:

  • Water bottle
  • Rain Jacket depending on weather

Note: If you are in the going list, and decide you are not going to attend, please update your RSVP to "Not going".

** CAR BREAK-IN ALERT**
Car break-ins has been an ongoing problem at all trail-heads lately. DO NOT leave anything valuable, or that may look like could be of value from outside, in your car parked at the trail-head. No blankets or jackets on the seat, that may give the impression of something hidden underneath.

Disclaimer: Hike leaders are simply volunteers and try their best to make it a fun experience for everyone, but assume no liability for any injury, loss or damage. Every PHMG member is required to read our group's waiver when joining the group, and signing up or attending an event implies your complete approval.
