Itinerary:

OK, fellow AOC hikers --- here we go again. Our website seems to be stable, the temperatures are a bit cooler, and the Chattahoochee river trails are waiting on us.

Come join me on the trails at the Vickery Creek - Unit of the Chattahoochee NRA. Vickery Creek is one of my favorite areas at the Chattahoochee river. We will stop at the Dam and at the Roswell Mill Machine Shop. Depending on the weather and the group, we may hike on some not so well known paths directly at the river.

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