Hike on the "Bareside" - Hamburg Reservoir to Port Clinton - Saturday June 20, 2009

Moderate to Strenuous - 6+ Miles

On the summer solstice there is an AT tradition that naked hikers can appear on the trail. Will we see any? We did 2 years ago! Come out for the adventure and a possible free show. Starting with uphill to the ridge line, following the forested path to another ascent and onto "outstanding views"! We will then descend down to Port Clinton. Bring plenty of water, snacks, and of course...wear clothes! Food afterwards- suggestions taken.

Meeting place: 9:15 am at the Port Clinton Playground off of Route 61 North. We will shuttle to Hamburg Reservoir.
