A nice year-round hike to have in the middle of Winter. This is typically an out-and-back hike though we might detour a little to also go through the loop trail near the second parking lot (the loop is a boardwalk so it is possible it's too slippery to be safe in which case we'll skip that part).

Prior to signing up for this hike, please take into account the following:

  • Adults only (≥18 yrs old).
  • We'll be going at a casual pace.
  • We will be hiking rain or shine though if conditions prove dangerous then we'll adjust (or cancel) the hike as needed. 

Also, the following gear is encouraged since this is a Winter hike:

  • Hiking poles
  • Traction Devices (e.g. Kahtoolas, Yaktrax, etc.)
