Saturday, October 14th, 2023, 7:00am: Hike Spyglass Hill

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:  We are to meet at the parking lot next to Seaside Market & Deli and Sharkey's, which are east of Gallows Bay and Canegata Ball Park. The route we are taking up Spyglass Hill is paved, but the incline is significant, so the hike is rated moderate. Distance is about 2-3 miles and should take about 3 hours to complete. The hike will be led by Steve Cohen.
