Hi hikers. Our regular 2nd Saturday hike for Saturday June 13th will be a route that takes us in the shade mostly from Council Crest over to Hoyt Arboretum where we will hike the Oak, Wildwood and Redwood trails and then return to Council Crest. It is going to be a hot day so prepare accordingly; we will stop at the Hoyt Visitor Center for water and restroom break.
SWTrails still needs hike leaders, hike ideas, and a Hike Coordinator so let us know if you have a favorite hike we could do, or if you have the volunteer spirit and would like to organize these hikes. It is a fun and rewarding adventure.
Join us! and remember this is our longer and faster paced 2.5 mph average speed hike with usually more than 6-mile distance and some moderate elevation change.
Bring a snack, water, good footwear, and dress appropriately for the weather (raingear? gloves? sunglasses? sunscreen? many layers?). Note that smoking on our hikes and walks is not permitted for health reasons. Kids are welcome and well-behaved pets on leash are welcome also. We always try and find restrooms along the way on these hikes, but sometimes it is several miles to find one so prepare accordingly.
We look forward to hiking with you Saturday, we always find lots of fun along the way.
