Let's meet at the Dennis Johnson Park on the Spring Creek Greenway for a proper 9 mile hike - moderate pace and mostly shaded. The park officially opens earlier, so 8:00 AM should be perfect time to start.

We'll go from Dennis Johnson towards 45, turn around and go to circle the dog park at Pundt Park and back to Dennis Johnson. It's approximately 9 miles. I like to veer off onto the equestrian trails, so be prepared for a mix of natural and paved trails. The map in Photos is the paved route, but our actual path may vary if conditions are still dry enough to mix it up!

Caveats:
I am by no means a professional guide, so please be responsible for your own safety, be prepared to navigate on your own, and be physically able to enjoy the hiking. All levels of experience welcome, but be sure to inform us beforehand of any accommodations or particular interests and we'll go from there. I have no ego involved in the route or pace, so just keep me informed if you are faster or slower than the main body of the group or have other suggestions.

Weather:
Average weather is pretty moderate in April, but be prepared! Temps usually range from high 50s at night to low 80s daytime. Overcast or mostly cloudy about 14% of the time. Thunderstorms and lightening possible, so watch the weather forecasts!

Semper preperavit!

Recommendations:
I always recommend plenty of water, snacks, sunscreen & insect repellent as a start.
Check out hiking guidelines online for other suggestions if you are new to hiking or need a refresher. I would download the map and/or have a paper back up if you are cautious, too!

Courtesies:
Edit your RSVP! I would rather have more people show up than have delays waiting for those who don't. Please don't sign up if you are tentative; just show up! If you do need to cancel, please edit your RSVP asap!

Communicate!
Things happen! If you experience delays, comment or dm and keep us informed. This holds for during events, too. We will adjust or accommodate whenever possible.
