Itinerary:

This is a fast fitness hike. We will hike fast over undulations through Palisades at a fast pace. Twilight is a very interesting time to hike at Palisades whether in the morning or evening. We will travel all over the park on the trails without a predetermined plan. We will hike a very swift pace and but allow others to catch up at the tops of hills if we get spread out.

After completing the hike we will finish right at the observation deck overlooking the river. Hiking from this deck is a 10 minute trek back to the cars. If you don't want to watch the sunset you are free to leave, however if you wish to stay this is a great spot to catch the sun's daily departure.

WE MEET @ INDIAN TRAIL ENTRANCE!
