Spring Hike at Fort HillSaturday: 11:00AM - Join us for a day of spring hiking at Fort Hill State Memorial. The hike will use portions of the Fort, Deer, and Gorge Trails and encompass about seven miles of hiking along this beautiful section of the Buckeye Trail. We will see 2,000 year old Hopewell earthworks, rock outcroppings, and some small arches and spring flowers. There will be two steep hills to tackle (400 and 300 feet respectively), and the Gorge Trail can be slippery at times, so be certain to wear sturdy hiking boots (and maybe bring trekking poles). Bring water! The hike should take two to three hours. There is a vault (pit) toilet on site, and if the museum is open there is a restroom within. Contact: Darryl Smith at preds81@yahoo.com |
