Leader: Amy Barker
Date: Saturday, October 19, meet at 12:30pm at the gravel pit parking lot at the start of Deasey Pond Trail, to the right after you pass trough the Loop Road Gate.
Difficulty and length in miles: This is about 2 miles of hiking, but is a gentle, non-strenuous hike that is perfect for all ages and abilities.
Description of the hike: We will be hiking the Deasey Pond Trail off the Loop Road. We will start on the Deasey Pond Trail to Deasey Pond. There is a wooden platform looking out over the pond where we will sit and learn more about nature journaling, have a snack, and do some nature journaling. This is a family hike, so all ages are encouraged to attend!
What to bring: Bring warm clothes just in case, bug stuff, good footwear for the trail may be slippery in places, and water. Nature journals, art supplies, and a handout on nature journaling will be provided, but feel free to bring your own. We should finish by 4pm, but feel free to bring a snack for the midway point.
Limit: The number of people is limited to 10 total, so make sure to register in a timely manner.
