Itinerary:

Let's get in some miles before Turkey Day! We will meet at the Mill parking lot to start our 6 mile hike.

If you need to use the restroom, please arrive extra early so we can start right at 4:00. 

Bring a headlamp or small flashlight as it will likely be dark when we finish. After the hike we can head over to Moxie Burger if anyone is intersted! If you've never been - it's about a 1 minute drive from the parking lot by the Mill, in the same stripmall with Chaplin's. (Burgers, salads, chicken sandwich, etc.)
