Itinerary:

Let's take advantage of Monday's weather (mid 50s & sunny) for a moderate hike at Vickery Creek.  Moderate is a relative term, so what does it mean for this hike?  Maintaining an average pace of 2.5 MPH, including limited water breaks.  If you're an experienced hiker this may feel slow.  If you're a beginner, this could feel uncomfortably fast (please consider a D1 or a leisurely paced hike).  

Please register if you have prior experience maintaining a 2.5 pace on trails (different from pavement).

If your prior AOC experience doesn't reflect this is a good fit for you, I will contact you and may remove your registration.

If you sign-up and you're unable to stay with the group, I will remove your registration. 

Meet at Groveway Community parking lot: 160 Frank Lewis Drive.  Restrooms are available at this location.

Please arrive 10 minutes early to use facilities and make introductions.
