Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue.
This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary.

Itinerary:

 

Coming from the East Cobb area, Lawrenceville is on the other side of the world for me!  Does anyone live out there?  Will anyone sign up for this hike?  

The only AOC hikes in this area were two done in 2010 - - before I joined the AOC.  Although I've scouted out the park a bit, I haven't actually hiked it.  But I love discovery and adventure, so if you do, too, join me!  Don't worry about getting lost.  It's an asphalt trail without any sidetrails, so if we stick to the paved part, we'll end up where we started.

We will park at the Ozora Meadows to Candler Lake parking lot and pick up the trail head there.  The lake, by the way, is beautiful!  You'll really be impressed with the views.  

Bathroom facilities are available at the park.
