Hi Hiking Freethinkers,

The hike this Sunday will be the Bear Creek Trail to Jones Park. This is a relatively difficult hike with a significant elevation gain. If there is desire, we could go beyond Jones park towards the beaver ponds or to Frosty Park.

To get there from Highway 24 and 26th Street, head south on 26th Street. In about 1 1/2 miles the road turns into Bear Creek Road. Continue on Bear Creek Road. In about 1 mile, Bear Creek Road dead ends and High Drive continues. High Drive is a one way road going north (do not enter). Also, at that location Gold Camp road crosses (again) and continues up. Make a U turn and park on the east side of Bear Creek Road just south of the end of High Drive. We will leave the parking area at 9:00 AM.

Due to the number of people on the hike, it is extremely useful to me if I know who plans on attending the hike.
