Itinerary:

Please Join me on a fast paced hike though a beautiful in-town hike at the Vickery Creek Trail. There is so much to love about this trail. It is scenic, shady and has a beautiful waterfall to see!

We will start at the Oxbo Road entrance and then head through VIckery Creek, down to the waterfall and over the bridge, coming around the trail to make a five mile trip.

This is a FAST hike. Horhay is my boss/colead so need I say more? 

This is also the hottest time of the year so we must hydrate and please bring water. Hydrate! Hydrate! Hydrate!

We will hike rain or shine (the latter is, of course, preferable). Thunder and lightening are the only reasons not to hike.

There are no bathrooms at this location.

Please arrive a few minutes early for introductions.

We will leave promptly at 6 pm.
