Saturday, November 28, 2015, 6:00 am: Hike to Manning Bay

General info for all hikes and walks: Hikes and walks are $5 for members, and $10 for non-members (become a member). Unless otherwise noted, the pace for hikes is moderate, lasting 3-5 hours, covering 3-5 miles, the terrain is hilly, footing is sometimes uneven, and we follow trails and possibly paved or dirt roads . Walks are easier and shorter than hikes, and usually follow paved or dirt roads, no trails. The guide may periodically stop and talk along the way. Bring sturdy, comfortable walking or hiking shoes, water, snack, bug spray, rain poncho, and camera. Shorts or long pants are OK. For day hikes, bring a hat and sun block. For night hikes, bring a small flashlight. There are usually about 20 people. We depart about 30 minutes after the posted start time. For some hikes, we will meet at the indicated location, then drive a short distance to the hike location.

Specific info for this hike: This coastal hike is on the south shore, mostly on a dirt road. There will be mangroves and probably mud and wading through water, so wear appropriate shoes and attire. It will take about 2.5 hours and cover about 2.5 miles. Mclean will be our guide.

Meet at 6:00am on Route 64 (East Airport Rd.) across from the horse racetrack. From there, we will drive to the start of the hike.
