Hills, Hills & More Hills

Meetup time is 8:15am and the hike begins at 8:30am.

We will meet at the TOP of Friendship Park Drive, between the two parking lots for Deane Dana Friendship Park/Nature Center, and the Bogdanovich Recreation Center. The hike will start from there at 8:30am.

This hike is about 5 miles, 800 ft gain, and takes about 2-1/2 hr.

Most people park at the bottom of Friendship Park Dr on West 9th Street, and walk up Friendship Park Dr. If you decide to park at the top in the parking lot, be aware you will need to walk up Friendship Park Dr at the end of the hike (and it's pretty steep).
