Description
This rugged hike has it all! Spectacular vistas looking over the Beaver Valley, majestic old trees, a pretty waterfall and a winding, babbling brook, to name a few. We will do a loop which includes the Siegerman Side Trail and the Fairmount Side Trail, plus a good distance along the main trail. We'll hike down into the Beaver Valley and back up again, so be prepared for some long, steep hills and there will likely be mud. Waterproof boots are a must! Poles would also be helpful. Bring a snack and lots of water.
