Full Stats & Map

Outstanding weather tonight and trails were in great condition. For those who didn't join us tonight, I hope you were still outside enjoying the night. Tonight included one loop on the Bagley Nature Area trail system and then continued on the Superior Hiking Trail. The SHT connects up with the Hartley system of hiking and bike trails.

There were many people out on both the Bagley and Hartley trails tonight. Some hikers, some runners, and some bikers. Greg is in charge of the route next week and I'm certain it will be all trails. For those of you with dogs, they will be welcome to come. Again, if you haven't come before, try stopping in one of these weeks. It is always a great time and good company.

Back on track!
