March 30, 2019 Hike Summary written by Chris Drone

Soo, I have a question. What do you call 18 people who decide to hike, when it already Has rained, and, the skies are threatening more rain?? Do you call them “dedicated”, “addicted”, or just what?? I call them “Friends” (hehe, not sure what they call me). Those 18, and our leader, Fred Scott, hiked into Sand Cave, then followed the bluff line, then hit trails 030 & 035 today. Saw several nice shelter bluffs, and then Bill Gilmour showed us the little arch on the way into Sand Cave..as we were finishing up. Yeah, it drizzled off & on, but, so what??. Oh Yeah..we had an extra ‘guide-leader today..the neighboring Black Lab..who Knows..the area. (does that count as 20??). About 40% of us did an ‘after-hike adjournment to the newly re-opened Shawnee Lounge for lunch.

March 30, 2019 Hike Update

March 30, 2019 Hike Update – I have been in touch with hike leader Fred Scott this morning and the plan is still to hike today. The hike will not be the 6 mile loop planned but will feature a shorter route in the area to avoid any weather impacts.
