An easy 10 mile hike through beautiful old growth forest along the Carbon River Road. We will hike this road out to Ipsut Creek Campground, take a lunch break there or back in the sunshine along the banks of the river at the Chenuis Falls crossing. Burn off that big turkey dinner, get some fresh air in beautiful surroundings with your fellow Mountaineers. Bring rain gear, lunch and water. This is an easy hike with little elevation gain but please be aware of your ability to hike 10 miles RT.
