This is a "Get Out And Go" hike!

Join Sharon M and members of the Miami Valley Outdoor Club for a brisk Tuesday hike at Taylorsville MetroPark. This fast-paced hike through hilly wooded terrain and along the Great Miami River lasts about an hour. Hike begins promptly at 4:20 so that everyone can finish before dark. Meet at the parking lot near the CCC shelter off Route 40.

About Sharon M

    I am going to do 2 loops on the Orange trail on the 9th. @ the 4:20 start I will be leading the brisk pace hike. I will be back at the CCC shelter by 5:20 and will be leading a slower paced hike around the orange trail again. You may want a head lamp if you come at 5:20 and do the slower loop. It will take about 1 hour 15+ minutes for the second loop. There are many options if you want to do a shorter and/or slower loop
