After taking a few weeks off, we're ready to go again! As of Wednesday, the forecast is calling for 59degrees and cloudy. Remember to dress in layers - it's chilly when we start, but once we get going, you'll warm up in no time!
With the cooler weather, it's the perfect time to take a walk in the woods. Come for a stroll through the trails at Stony Creek. Our hike is 3.6 miles and takes us about an hour and a half.
We'll meet at the West Branch Picnic Area parking lot B, towards the trail entrance. This is a let turn off the main park road. Map is here: http://www.metroparks...
Admission to the park is $4/car. Annual pass is $20. (Senior pass is $12.)
Dogs must remain on leash in the Metro Park and don't forget bags to pick up after your pooch and water for you both! We'll leave the parking area at 1:10 p.m prompt.
We came with Joey all prepared for him and us to meet and make new friends... we reached there a few minutes late though around 1.10pm...I don't know if we were totally late or we missed out on the meeting place itself, but unfortunately we could not locate the group. Since it was a gorgeous day, we came prepared to walk and walk we did - the 6 mile hike!!! Hoping to meet everybody next Saturday :)
“ Thank you for making this an afternoon walk! I've wanted to attend previously but it was always scheduled so early and I have to drive 40 minutes to get there. This time worked out perfectly for us and we all (dogs most of all) had a great time! ”
“ This was the first meetup that Riley and I were able to attend. I was a little apprehensive at first but everyone was very friendly and made me feel comfortable. I work 40+ hours a week and it was great to get out and enjoy some time with my puppy and other proud, dedicated dog-owners! ”
“ It was a beautiful day and the dogs loved it. The trail is nice and long, about 3.5 miles. Lots of leaves made it a little slippery, though. We would like to go back and walk it again. ”
