Itinerary:
Come join me for an afterwork/night hike at Old Rope Mill Park.

We'll be hiking on the Taylor Randal Memorial Bike Trails, which hiking is also permitted.

The trails are directional by day of the week and we'll be hiking all 3 loops counter clockwise while bikers will be biking clockwise.

Bikes have right of way at all times, so if we see any bikers, then we'll need to quickly move off trail to allow them to pass. I doubt will see many, but we should be aware.

Be sure to bring your headlamp or a flashlight because the sun goes down pretty quickly soon after we start.

Plan to keep a moderate pace of 3 mph.

Total hiking is approximately 6.25 miles.
