Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue.
This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary.

Itinerary:

Come join us on a trail run from Indian Springs State Park to Dauset Trails Nature Center. I have marked this exploratory because it has been a few years since I ran it and things may have changed. We will park at the visitor center and walk a short distance past the park's namesake spring to the start. Then we will run along the edge of the lake, turn into the forest at the end of the lake and run to the Dauset Trails Nature Center, where we will turn around and run back to the beginning. The distance is about 5.9 miles, and the elevation gain about 490'. We will aim for a 13 minute/4.6mph pace, but we will stay together as a group so no one gets lost.
