Itinerary:

We will be hiking 5 easy miles of the trail. We should be finished hiking around 8:30 PM.  

The trail from Victor Lord Park is part of the Fort Yargo trail system.  It joins the 'Inner Loop' recreational trail system which mostly hugs the lake at Fort Yargo.  We will follow this path until it is time to turn around and return the way we came.

We can take time to taste the blackberries which are coming into season.  If we are lucky we will see some deer.
