Sun, Sep 8, 2019, 6:30 am: BODKIN MILL

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.

Meet at 6:30 am at the top of the Beast, at the road to Scenic West. Please bring small bills to pay.

Specific info for this hike: We will follow Scenic west road, then take a trail that will take us up to the mill (highest elevation sugar mill!). On the way down will take a different road to meet the Scenic road. There will be some bush, but mostly road. It will be hot - dress properly and bring plenty to drink.
