The first 3 miles of this hike will be all uphill and the rest downhill. This trail can be rough in places with roots, rock, creek crossings and mud after rain.  Hiking poles are highly recommended.  We'll stop frequently for short breaks and take a longer break at Bullitt Fireplace, where we'll have our lunch.

We'll meet at Squak Mountain State Park parking lot at 9:00am.  Those who would like to join me in a dynamic yoga warm-up before the hike should be there by 8:45.  A Discovery Pass is required for parking.
