Itinerary:
Join us for a fun hike at Panther creek  all the way ( about 13 miles). We'll hike close to the river the whole time. There are a few steep inclines and rocky cliffs but for the most part it's a flat trail.  

We will hike at a moderate to fast pace.  It's a very pretty trail and due to river it will be cold. There are some great vistas to explore and we will go past a few   waterfalls.
