Itinerary:


Come join us on the trails at the Jones Bridge Unit of the Chattahoochee NRA. While not as well known as some of the other branches of the Chattahoochee NRA, Jones Bridge has an excellent system of trails which can be combined to provide five miles or so of hiking. Much of our hike will be along the river, but a good bit of it will be in the nearby woods. There will be a few hills you will need to climb but nothing with over a 150 foot elevation gain. There is also a good chance you will see some deer in the more isolated parts of this park. Due to the many possible side trails at the Jones Bridge Unit, it is important that we remain together fairly closely as a group.



Three dollar parking fee or Chattahoochee NRA annual parking pass required.

Notes:

THis is a rain or shine hike, I love to hike in rain so hike will definitely proceed in case of rain. Except under extreme thunder storm warning.
