HIKING Saturday Medium Hiking -- for ~8 miles on 11/11/2023 @ 9:00am-1:00pm -- Join me on a path that will take you past one of my favorite old ruins, two trees that fell in love with a promise to never part, and a car that got stuck in time. We will cross over two streams on nature surface trails through woods and meadows with rolling hills, past farms and horses. Lunch will be after 6 miles and close to the parking lot, providing an early out. We will finish the hike with an easy two-mile loop.
