Itinerary:

Dedicated hikers and outdoor adventurers,  it is time to enjoy an opportunity to hike at one of my favorite local trails. Vickery Creek is a fun trail, because it has so many different sights to see as well as a reasonably challenging trail with some steep slopes. With this in mind, I am really excited to post a fast, 7-mile, D3, fitness hike (no running, only fast paced hiking), at Vickery Creek. For this event, we are starting at the Bridge/Mill entrance (85 Mill Street, Roswell Georgia 30075). MEET IN THE PARKING LOT. From there our hike will begin at the bridge as we make our way through 7-miles of trails. Yay!!!

The trail and landscapes are very beautiful this time of year, so we will be enjoying nature as we move quickly through the trails to complete our 7 miles in 2.5 hours. Additionally, we will be taking only a few quick breaks ( no lunch break), so we will definitely are going to work on fitness while increasing our endurance. 

This is not a beginners hike and you must have hiked at least 2 D2s or one D3 with the club prior to this event.

This hike will be fun, challenging and rewarding!
