Description: Please join me as I (hopefully) complete my quest to hike 50+ miles over my Spring Break! This is the 'big loop' in Doughton Park, 17 miles total. We'll start from Longbottom Road trailhead and do the hike in a clockwise direction, going up Flat Rock Ridge and coming down Cedar Ridge. Slight rain is predicted but I plan to do this rain or shine. If I haven't hiked with you previously, I will reach out to determine your recent experience at this distance/elevation gain/difficulty.
