The planned hike is easy to moderate difficulty, suitable for hikers of most ability levels, and will cover between 3 and 4 miles.
Dogs are welcome but must be leashed and cleaned up after. Please be sure to bring water, and consider bringing a headlamp or flashlight. Plan on attending our

The Hike:
Join us for a weekend walk on the
Blue Spring Lake Segment in Jefferson County. We will hike a loop using the Bald Bluff Nature Trail to the Blue Springs Lake Segment to the Stone Elephant, then take the trail behind the Stone Elephant to the horse/snowmobile trail to reconnect with the Blue Springs and Bald Bluff trails to return to the parking lot. Our discussion theme is the History of Blue Spring Lake.
Details:
The hike will be about 4 miles, and of medium difficulty. There are some moderate hills so hiking poles will be helpful. Bring water and dress appropriately for the weather. We will cancel if weather or conditions are unsafe. For your safety during hunting season, wear blaze orange or other bright colors. Dogs are welcome but must be leashed and cleaned up after.
