Thu, Feb 27 2025 - Thursday Morning Semi-Fitness Hike at Island Ford (View Original Event Details)
| ![]() |
It was a fine day for a hike at Island Ford! The temperature rose to the 60's during our hike, with clear blue skies and a nice breeze.
We kept up a good pace, finishing the hike with 5.5 miles in 2 hours (including several stops for delayering and water). Lee took a lot of great pictures to record the event.
Congratulations to Allan, David, and John for a very close finish to the top of the warmup hill. No one even dared to challenge them.
The meadow was like a puddle as we passed through. I thought there might be a leak in one of the buildings near the Visitor Center, so I reported the water to the employee on duty. He confirmed that, indeed, one of the pipes had sprung a leak, and they were pumping water into the meadow.
Thank you for your photos, Lee!
