9:00 AM – 2:00 PM
"Summit" Saturday
If you have previously completed the Intermediate Hiking for Fitness Program or can hike 7.5 miles with at least 1,500ft of elevation, this hike may be right for you. From the White Barn parking lot, we will start out on Meadow Trail up Vista, Headwaters, and Red Mountain Trails to one of the "summits" of Gray Pine, where we will eat lunch along the ridgeline. From there we will take an adventurous return on Brushy Peaks Trail. We strongly recommend completion of the shorter version of the Bald Mt. hike (in and out via Bald Mountain Trail) as a pre-requisite.
This event is free but requires RSVP. Wear appropriate footwear for rocky/slippery trails and multiple layers (it will be cold when we start, but you'll get warmed up as we climb). Bring your lunch, at least two quarts of water, and hiking poles if you use them. Heavy rains cancel. Parking fees apply.
