🇪🇸Español Abajo 👇 Did you move to a new country and have to reinvent yourself? Building friendships from scratch, navigating a new language, missing home — yet longing to belong?

Hello everyone! Come join us for a hike around Sugarloaf Mountain. We will meet in the East View parking lot by the picnic benches by 9:00am. Please allow yourself extra time (10 - 15 min) for parking, as it is crowded on the weekends. Then, we will go on the White Trail until it intersects with the Blue Trail, hop on the Blue Trail until we reach the West View parking lot, and then go on the Green Trail until we reach the summit. We will take a break at the top, enjoy the views, and then head back down the Orange Trail, until we reach our starting point at the East View parking lot. Please see the linked map below. The enlarged map is on the second page. [Sugarloaf Mountain Hike Map](https://sugarloafmd.com/downlaods/Sugarloaf-Mountain-Trail-Map-2020v1.pdf) Please bring water to stay hydrated. After the hike, we will grab lunch in Urbana. We can decide as a group where we want to eat. I hope to see you there!

Meet fellows cat lovers, cats, and enjoy the summer weather 🌳🌳🌳 Walking your pet isn’t just for dogs, but cats too! It’s a source of enrichment for them and a great chance for both you and your cat to get some fresh air. This is an opportunity to socialize your cat with people and other cats in a neutral and safe environment. Feel free to come without your cat (or if you don’t have one) if you just want to socialize and your kitty would rather relax inside 😌❤️ If you do bring a cat, make sure your cat is wearing a collar and has on a harness/leash, is in a cat backpack, a cat carrier, or a cat stroller. Misty and I can’t wait to meet you! Let your cats enjoy the relaxing outdoors. This is a great opportunity for more beginner cat walkers! Moving this event to be an hour earlier than typical to try and beat some of the summer heat at the beginning of the day. 🅿️ Parking: There is plenty of free parking in Rockcreek Park.

The Big Slackwater section of the C&O Canal south of Williamsport, MD was completely closed for more than 20 years because the towpath, squeezed into an incredibly narrow corridor between the Potomac on one side and high cliffs on the other, got flooded out once too often. This section has reopened after a $15 million restoration project that should solve the flooding problem. Starting from the Canal's Dam #4, we will head upstream and soon reach the inlet lock that marks the lower end of the Big Slackwater section. The next few miles should be both unusually scenic and unusually interesting as we admire the sturdily-rebuilt towpath beneath our feet. We continue past quaint McMahon Mill and Howell Cave (no relation that we know of) to Lock 41, where the Canal as we usually think of it resumes, with a prism and berm as well as the towpath. Total length of our easy stroll is about 8 miles. Bring beverages, lunch, and about $15 for transportation and trip fees. We'll meet and form carpools from the Grosvenor-Strathmore metro station at 9am. RSVPs close at 8pm the day before to allow for logistical planning. Additional Trip Details: Trip may be adjusted due temperature or river water level. Please [click here](https://adventuringlgbtq.com/Adventuring_Release_Form.pdf) to review our release form. When you RSVP to an event, you affirm that you have read and agree to the terms of the release.

Walk past scenic Lake Barton in Burke Centre. Weave thru parks and quiet woods and past well-kept homes that are so inviting! The spring flowers are especially beautiful this year! Trail featured is 5 km (3.1 miles) and has some elevation gain. After the walk, we can have a drink or lunch at a nearby restaurant. The walk is $2 for non-members and guests to defray expenses for our sport and $4 for AVA walk credit. Please bring correct change in cash (electronic payment is not possible). Dogs and children are welcome but those under 18 must have a guardian present. Meet walk host Sandy Koontz in front of the Starbucks to register by 8:45 am, so we can leave by 9 am. For more info contact Sandy Koontz, shkoontz@gmail.com, (703) 867-1073. Hope to see you there!

A challenging series of rock scrambles along the Maryland side of the Potomac River. See photo above - this is part of the trail! For anyone with questionable balance or fear of heights, this section of the hike is NOT recommended!!. NOTE: due to its nature, the Billy Goat loop will be limited to 5 persons. Hikers who have not done the Billy Goat before (or years ago) will be given preference. We will get to the Billy Goat trailhead from the parking lot across from the Old Anglers' Inn on Macarthur Blvd using the Berma Road and Woodland trails. Those who prefer a flatter return route in lieu of the Billy Goat trail can return to the parking lot via the sunny C & O Canal tow path or by the shady Berma Road trail. **Please note the early start time to ensure a parking space and to avoid the hotest times of day.** Text me at 703 401-5399 with any questions or if you'd like to carpool from my place. I can take 3-4 passengers.
