Itinerary:
Ok lets celebrate the return of daylight savings time with an after work hike...

You have probably seen people hanging out at this park across the river if you have ever been at the Chatt. NRA JB park (in Johns Creek).   This is the other Jones Bridge park..in Norcross  It is a a very popular local spot on a hot summer's day.  


The trails are not that long, but you do get some sweet river views and at least you are walking through the woods...very nice, esp if you haven't explored this area before. The total distance will just be about 4-5 miles with negligible elevation gain...no major hills, but just a walk that we will enjoy with good company.

Sunset is at 7:45 PM so we will definitely try to time it to watch the sun set over the river.. I don't think we'll get a direct view of it but still could be nice with some clouds and some reflection action going on.
