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:


Do you want to hike at a particular area in or around Atlanta? On a certain day? Mornings? Afternoons?  You got it.

Here is how it works:

* Email your preferred date(s) ... at least two options ... and time(s) to Lemmy.AOC@gmail.com
* Chose a category D1, D2, or D3.
* Name your favorite area / destination (within max 1 hour travel time from Atlanta). If you have no preference, I will choose a destination.

That's all. You will be my "Guest of Honor" on this hike.

Come join me for an easy hike on the Heritage Park Trail.  This historic road explores a portion of Confederate General Joseph Johnston's Smyrna Line and the remains of an old woolen mill. Hikers can view Ruff's Mill and continue on to see Concord Covered Bridge.

If you have any questions e-mail the Event Coordinator.
