Thursday Dec 3, 2015 - Antietam Lake

Les will lead the 5.5 mile zigzag hike from Antietam Lake. The Red Blaze and the Yellow Blaze trails lead from the Antietam Lake parking lot to Kuechler's Roost, roughly paralleling each other. A number of cross trails connect them. How many? What color blazes do they have? At this time of year, the terrain between these blazes will be visible. We will take each of the cross trails as we climb the hill above Antietam. There will be a side trip past the 'Man Cave.' After reaching Kuechler's Roost, the return is via the former Angora Fruit Farm. Lunch will be optional afterwards.

MEET: 10 AM @ Antietam Lake parking lot.

TELEPHONE: Les 610-323-1703 with questions.

Thursday Nov 26, 2015 - Wyomissing Creek

KAY wants us to enjoy a hike along Wyomissing Creek and work up an appetite to further enjoy that turkey and filling. The hike will be approximately 5 miles and travels on trails, roads, and fields of the area. Always dress appropriately for weather conditions. If it rains, there’s a possibility to get our feet wet.
