    Weather permitting, we will walk along the Pottawatomi River, crossover a field and then join the Blue Side Trail. We will then ascend through a crevasse to the Main Trail along the top of the escarpment. We will hike to Jones Falls and explore the area. We will then take the Merle Gunby Side Trail loop and join up with the Main Trail again. This  hike ends with a steep descent back to the parking lot.  We will gather for a pot luck lunch following the hike. I will provide the hot soup and drinks. We will be leaving precisely at 9:30.  Please contact me through the built in Contact the Hike Leader option if you have any questions or unable to register.

    Enjoy a there and back hike along the Humber River! We will hike for about an hour as we follow the trail upriver from Dick’s Dam Park. We’ll stop for a short standing break and then return to the parking lot following the same trail downriver.

    Be prepared for winter conditions by bringing warm gear, poles, and crampons/icers. You are encouraged to bring water and a snack, if desired. No dogs please.

Please send the hike leader a message indicating that a friend will be joining you. A paper registration sheet will be available for your friend to sign in, so please factor that into your arrival time.

    Following the hike, we’ll stop in at a local eatery. All are welcome.
