Itinerary:

Jo has volunteered to coordinate a second trip to Silver Creek for those of you that are new to hiking or just prefer to take things at a more leisurely pace. This is a perfect hike for those of you still working on your after winter shape up routine. The hike is long but not technically difficult.

No steep climbs but quite a bit of walking up and down hills . Nice lookouts. There are some areas of rough footing
