Link to purchase License

We will be hiking the Pocket Loop trail along with a short portion of the Chamberlain Trail as we explore this WMA. We will hit a waterfall less than .5 mile in and have many views as we do our loop trek. It is prime wildflower season and there should be plenty for us to see in this area known for an abundance of species. We will also do a quick loop of the Shirley Miller Wildflower Loop trail. There is one water crossing on this loop, so water shoes are a good idea. Could there be a stop a the RedTop Brewhouse after the hike? Who knows?

This is a low level D5 hike, recent D4 experience is required to join the fun.
