Itinerary:

Join me for this weeks hike at Vickery Creek as we start from a new location. We'll go over and explore the Waller Extension area and circle back onto the main Vickery Creek trails. We'll hike as fast as our slowest hiker, but continue to move at a moderate pace. We'll stop at the top of hills and make sure everyone drinks and the group is together. I'll have more Popsicles at the end of our hike to complete our Monday outing!

We will meet at the trail head parking area off of Oxbo Road, which is free to park at.

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.
