Itinerary:

Join us for a walk in the park. Haw Creek is a typically rather quiet Mountain Bike / Hiking Trails park. There is little elevation change, and the majority of the hike is wooded. 

We'll meet at the trail head and hit the trail from there. The trail we'll be hiking is 3.3 miles, therefore we will walk it twice. 

The park allows dogs, but remember it may be muddy depending on the weather prior to the hike.
