Itinerary:

Come join us for a hike through the world's largest college campus! We'll visit the mountain campus for the Old Mill and the House o' Dreams, and the main campus for the Ford Buildings and other areas. This is a 10 mile hike with about 1300 ft of elevation gain all within 2 miles - so make sure you are up for this hike. We will be going at a moderate pace, but still taking a little time at each of the sites. Pack a snack or lunch for the trail and then after the hike we'll visit downtown Rome and have a bite to eat at the Harvest Moon before heading back home. We expect to arrive at dinner between 4-5pm and back at the carpool by 7pm.

Please arrive at the carpool by 6:45am so we can be on the road by 7:00am.

Everyone entering campus must have a valid driver's license. If you are planning to meet us there (instead of carpooling), you must speak with Wynn about this. Berry has rules for entering the campus.
