Itinerary:

Let's hike the woods in Decatur, starting at Medlock Park.

We'll make our way from Medlock to Mason Mill, hiking as much of the wooded trails as possible.  We'll also make our way to the Emory campus and hike the trails there.

There are several trip leaders who lead hikes here, and we all do something different. Even I may do something different from the last time.  :)

What we may do this time -- depending on the mood -- is cross a creek, bounce on a suspension bridge, chase some geese, scramble over some rocks. There are a few hills we'll definitely hike up to get a little cardio in.

All that said, if you're up for it, meet me at the Medlock Park picnic pavillion. See address, and parking map below.

There are restrooms near the pavillion. 

Please arrive a little early to park, meetup, lace up, etc. We will leave on time.
