Itinerary:

Hiking the Bartram Trail.  We will park at Warwoman Dell, 3 miles from Clayton on Warwoman Rd.  We'll head in the opposite direction of Pinnacle Knob.  We've not gone this direction in some time, so we've marked this as exploratory.  We'll go for approximately 7.5 miles before turning around.  So we'll go past Rainey Mountain, Cross Pool Creek Road at Bob Gap, to the summit of mountain on the ridge (Rainey Ridge). 

Total distance will be around 15 miles.

Since this is exploratory and a reasonably long hike, please don't make evening plans.

We will discuss dinner options before leaving the park and ride.
