Saturday June 8, 2019 - Antietam Lake Hike

This hike, beginning at Antietam Lake, uses several trails to climb to Kuechler’s Roost.

While this is not a particularly long hike, there will be much hill climbing

Meeting place: 9:30 am, the large Angora Road parking lot, near Hill Road, in sight of Antietam Lake.

Note: There are 2 intersections of Hill Road and Angora Road. Only one is in sight of Antietam Lake
