Itinerary:

It's spring and I need to break out of my winter funk! How about you? Then...let's burn some calories on the beautiful trails at Vickery Creek. Afterward, if you're inclined to do so, come join me at Moxie Burger for burgers and beverages, or whatever suits your tastebuds!

We'll warm up for the first half mile and then keep a moderate pace, only stopping occasionally. Please bring plenty of water! I hope to see some old friends and make some new ones as we initiate this hike for another great season!

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

Please arrive a few minutes early to check in and use the bathroom if needed. We will start from the top of the hill next to the parking lot. If you're running late or can't make it at the last minute, please call or text me at 678-764-8516.

This is not a beginner hike, it is a semi-fitness hike. We hike at a moderate pace with only a few short breaks for water. You should have previous D2 moderate hiking experience. 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.

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

See you on the trail!

We are meeting behind the shops at the Roswell Mill Center where the parking is free. It is where Hwy 9 (S. Atlanta St) and Hwy 120 (Marietta Hwy) intersect. Keep driving down the road until you get to the big parking lot at the very bottom of the hill.
