Hamburg Reservoir To Port Clinton - Saturday June 16, 2007

6+ miles (moderate to strenuous climbs/ descent/ some rocks)

Come out for an active hike on the AT - get those legs & lungs in shape, starting with an uphill climb to the ridge line, following a forested path to another ascent, and onto outstanding views of farmlands, the Schuykill River, Cabela's, and Hamburg. We will then descend down a series of switchbacks to Port Clinton. Bring water, snacks, and boots. The "carrot on the stick" is food afterwards at a local eatery. (suggestions taken)
