White Clay Creek Park spans 2 states. Most people only hike in the Delaware part, however, the Pennsylvania part is just as nice, maybe nicer. It's also free to park in PA, whereas DE clips you for $6.
We will start at the parking lot in the below link and explore the PA part of White Clay Creek. Eventually we will head to the winding trials in the DE part.
We will walk for 3.5-4 hours. 75% or more of the hike should be in the shade.
Use this Google Map link to the starting point. http://local.google.c...
To carpool from Hill House (201 W Evergreen, 19118) meet at 930am. Each carpooler chips in $8 at the start. Make sure to email me if you want to carpool. Here's a Google Map link to Hill House.

Always good idea to bring some food, your camera, and on hot days a dry shirt that you can change into.
Warm weather hike info:
-- Put on sun bloc before leaving home. See more about sunscreens under Files.
-- For hikes in a park it's best to wear long sleeve shirts and long pants for protection against bugs, thorn bushes, poison ivy, etc. I'm often regretful when I don't take my own advice.
-- Bring lots of water. Best to get a 3 liter hydration pack or reservoir. More about water: http://www.hikingarou...
-- Only a forecast of thunderstorms and torrential rains will cancel a hike. A normal rain is no problem in warm weather.
