      This month, we'll be hiking the Taylor Ochs Loop Trail at the Dennison University Biological Preserve. 

      It will be a new experience for us.

      We will be meeting an hour earlier this hike at 9:00 a.m. instead of the usual 10:00 a.m.  It is a 4-mile hike lasting about 2 hours.

      Here is a google maps link to the parking lot:

      https://maps.app.goo.gl/Pdt1tibkztjnTYE76

      (copy and paste the link into Google)

      This trail is a bit primative, so wear proper shoes. 

      We will meet at 8:45 a.m.

      Please RSVP so we know who will be hiking.
