Saturday April 13, 2013 - Marsh Creek State Park Glenmoore


Approx. 5 miles

Enjoy an approx. 5 mile hike starting from the boat launch off Reeds Road on the western side of the lake. Depending on trail conditions, we may head toward the dam and explore the trail system below the dam breast. Or, we may cross Marshall Road and hike through the area formerly owned by Mr. Greenfield. Either way, expect some easy hills and be prepared for some wet trail conditions.
1st Meeting place: 9:30 am, Livingood Park in Elverson on Rte. 82 just south of Rte 23 to carpool to the trailhead.
2nd Meeting place: 10:00 am at the parking area for the boat launch.


NOTE: Bathroom facilities are available at both Livingood Park and at the boat launch. If weather is nice, we will “picnic” by the lake after the hike, so bring a sandwich. The hike leader will provide beverages and a light snack.
