Saturday April 17, 2010 - Turkey Hill Trail
6 miles
This will be a loop hike, the first part will be on the Turkey Hill Trail which goes past some farms, through wooded areas, up and down several hills with some views of the Susquehanna River. Then we will descend to an old railroad bed and return along a level trail next to the river. A small amount of bushwhacking will be required. For those who would like an easier pace, a walk out and back along the river is an option. We will plan to stop to eat on the way back for those interested. Drive is approximately 45 minutes from the meeting place. Trail is located near Washington Boro in Lancaster County.
Meeting place: 9:00 am, Ollie’s parking lot (closed Giant and AC Moore); intersection of business Rts 222 & 724, Lancaster Avenue, Shillington

Saturday March 27, 2010 - Let's Try Again! -Struble Trail & Dowlin Forge Park, Chester County
Approx 5-6 Miles (Hopefully without SNOW this time!)
This is a RESCHEDULE of the Feb 13 hike that was snowed out; Rich graciously suggested trying a this again instead of his hike at Green Lane. Four people showed up on Feb 13 and we ended up on Thun Trail instead for about 100 feet and making "snow angels" before we gave up! So here goes...
Take a pleasant walk along the beautiful Brandywine Creek in Chester County on the Struble
Bike-Hike trail and see historic remnants of the Dowlin Forge in Uwchlan Township. Car pooling is suggested because of limited parking. We’ll hike and then reflect on the sights seen during lunch in the Chester County area.
Meeting place: 9:00 am, Boscov’s East parking lot (east end), Business Rt. 422 East, Exeter Twp.
For further information and directions, contact: 610-779-2599
