Sunday, March 16th, 2025, 7:00am:  Canaan Ridge to Mount Eagle!

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: The St. Croix Hiking Association has scheduled a hike to Mount Eagle, the highest peak on the island, from Canaan Ridge!  Discussion will be on the natural and cultural history of the site.

This is a long hike, probably 7.5 miles in total. The hike is moderate to somewhat difficult in some paths of the  trail. We will be hiking on dirt roads, and trail paths, so short or long pants are okay. Ecologist Olasee Davis is our guide.

Meet at 7:00am on Route 73, at the bottom of the hill across from the newly-built bridge in Frangipani.
