This is a 10.2-mile hike. This is rugged with some water crossings. There is a 300ft elevation climb. The trail is well traveled, but not the most well maintained. It's a great opportunity for training for longer more intensive hikes. This trail is part of the Tecumseh Trail and has many scenic views and camp spots for future trips. Right now there are fields of bluebells visible for the trail. Adults only. Guests and non-members welcome.

Transportation Plan: Partipants will drive themselves and meet at the parking lot. If interested in carpooling, email me.

Required Gear/Clothing: Hiking boots, hiking polls, 2L of water, Snacks, dress for the weather, and your 10 essentials.
