Saturday August 11, 2012 - French Creek State Park / Six Penny Lake


Approx. 5-6 moderate miles 
Herb will lead a woodland walk under a canopy of trees. We will walk through one of the group camping areas, descend into the site of the former Six Penny Lake, explore this long forgotten spot and then return to our cars. If we are quiet, perhaps we will hear the laughter of former picknicers and swimmers! Be sure to bring water and a snack and wear hiking boots. There are lots of rocks and a few hills. Lunch afterwards is optional. 


Meeting place: 10:00 am at parking lot across from the Fr.Creek Park Office on Hopewell Road
