Thursday October 23, 2014 - Appalachian Trail Hamburg
HERB has planned a 5+ mile fall hike on the old and the new Appalachian Trail in the Hamburg area. The hike will stop at three ever flowing, sparkling springs. An old timer supposedly hid his “mountain dew” in a hollow tree near one of the springs, which we may be lucky enough to find! There will be some ups and downs and lots of rocks. Fall leaves will be in full colour by then!
