7:30am at trailhead (exit 20 off I-90). Specific directions will be sent to participants. No parking permit needed. Due to covid restrictions, carpooling is not recommended with people outside of your household.
We will make a clockwise loop, hiking up to West Tiger 1 via the Lingering Trail and the Tiger Mountain Trail, then head over to West Tiger 2 and 3, returning via K3 and the High Point Trail. One of my favorite shoulder season hikes, this route should be especially pretty and quiet on a weekday morning. I would like us to refrain from discussing politics or the election on this hike. If this poses a problem for you, please do not sign up.
The pace will be moderate but steady. Although not a fast paced trip, please consider the mileage and elevation gain before signing up.
The trip will go rain or shine, so please be prepared with appropriate equipment (especially rain layers). If you have questions about whether the trip is suitable for you, contact the leader to discuss.
This is a Phase 2 hike. Please bring a face covering for wearing while passing others on the trail.
