Day Hike - Mima Falls

Meet at 9:30 AM in the parking lot of the Farm Boy Drive-In at the end of  Exit 95 from I-5, south of Olympia, labelled Maytown/ Littlerock.

From the Farm Boy Drive-In parking lot we will caravan to the trailhead parking lot at Margaret McKinnon Campground, where we begin the Mima Falls hike.  At Mima Falls we'll have our lunch at a picnic table and then return to the cars by the same route.   Then we drive to the nearby trailhead for Mima Mounds Natural Area, where we'll hike a short, level loop trail through the mounds after studying exhibits describing theories of how the mounds were formed.  A Discover Pass must be displayed by each car at each trailhead.  There are restrooms at both trailheads and the Farm Boy Drive-in.   There will be an optional refreshment stop at the Farm Boy Drive-In after the hike.  We will most likely arrive there around 3:30 PM, depending on hiking speed and how soon we start hiking.
