Explore Wild Wissahickon
Join me to explore trails less traveled in the wild (I saw a ferocious chipmunk the other day) Wissahickon Creek part of Fairmount Park.
We hike at a moderate pace for about 2.5 to 3 hours. The terrain is hilly with lots of ups and downs. Each month I forge a different route or get lost in another area depending on your point of view. This is not a hike for those who want to go straight down one trail. We go up, down, around, back, hit dead ends, reverse course, and so on.
Afterwards we'll head out to either Whole Foods Plymouth Meeting or Top of the Hill for lunch. Both places are great and inexpensive. Whole foods has more room. Top of the Hill is best for small groups or when the garden area is open.
Only hard rain, 100% chance of thunderstorms, or pestilence stops us from hiking.
We meet at Hill House in Chestnut Hill (201 W Evergreen, 19118) just off Germantown Ave. The R8 and R7 trains are nearby. Here's a link. http://local.google.c...
Ok to bring your dog.
Please have your event payment in dollar bills ready. No coins or doubloons! Making change for 5's or 20'ties holds up the hike. Thank you.
If you change your mind, change your RSVP. No-shows may be barred from future events.
