DURATION: 2.5 Hours (approx)

DISTANCE: 5 Miles (loop)

HIKE WALKTHROUGH:  After we meetup, we will drive to the Chantry Flats area. From there we will head down the concrete part of the trail for about 1/4 mile to a Green Bridge. From that point we’ll start the Winter Creek trail upwards.  We remain on this trail for about 1 and 1/2 miles until we get to Hoegee’s Campground.  That will be our midway point and stop for a bit to rest.  Afterwards, we continue up for another 1 and 3/4 miles through some narrow trail sections until we get to the high point of the trail. The rest of the way will be down hill and lead us directly into the Chantry Flats area.

REQUIRED: WATER, at least 1.5 liters. A good sized snack.

RECOMMENDED: Tough/Sport shoes (which you may get wet), sun screen, hiking pole, and maybe some bug repellent.

PARKING FEE: $5 per car / $10 for lot parking, if available (we usually group people up before we head up,but just in case)
