Itinerary:

Let's burn some calories at Vickery Creek - beautiful trails with slight elevations and some roots to watch out for.

We'll warm up for the first half mile and then keep a fast pace stopping only occasionally. Also - bring a small flashlight or headlamp as it will be getting dark towards the end of the hike.

There are restrooms at this location and parking is FREE! Unless you park in a no parking zone, then it's like $50. Trust me on this.

Please arrive a few minutes early to check in and use the bathroom if needed. If you're running late or can't make it at the last minute, please call or text me at 770-695-3969.

This is not a beginner hike, it is a fast hike with only a few short breaks for water. You should have previous D2 Fast hike or D3 experience to do this hike. If I feel you don't have the requirements to do this hike, I may remove you from the roster for your own safety and in fairness to the rest of the group.

NOTE: If you are new to the AOC, please include a message with your registration telling me about your hiking experience/level of fitness. If I don't hear from you, I will move you to the wait list until I hear from you.

Please understand all trip leaders are volunteers and most of us have full time jobs. We may not have time to call new members to discuss their fitness for a particular hike. It really helps us to run a successful hike if new members let us know what fitness activities they do so we can determine if the hike is a good fit for them.

After the hike anyone who is interested can join us at Moxie Burger for dinner!

PLEASE REMEMBER TO LOCK ALL VALUABLES IN YOUR TRUNK and OUT OF SIGHT!

See you on the trail!
