Preview - Golden Gate S. P. HIke

Hike planned for:  Thursday, October 31st.

The next hike will be in Golden Gate State Park, northwest of Golden.  This is not an ACAA sponsored hike.  We will meet at the intersection of Quincy Avenue and Parker Road...in the parking lot, between the brown Furniture Row sign and the Shell gas station.  Meet time is 8:00 a.m.

Those who are interested in joining us should be willing and able to shuttle one or more hikers and their packs to and from the TH.  Access to the TH is on a hard road, so a 4WD vehicle is not required.

The hike is considered easy to moderate in terms of difficulty, and will begin at the Bootleg Bottom TH located at the west side of the park.  Elevation gain will be 600' +/-.  Total mileage about 8.

Weather forecast: Cloudy skies with high temperature in low 50's.  Zero chance of rain.

Dress for the weather...insulation layer, warm headgear, gloves, and rain gear.  Don't forget a lunch and adequate drinking water.  Also pack a pair of Yax Trax (snow/ice spikes) if you have them.  Shaded sections of trail may be snow-covered.

This may be your last opportunity to hike before the weather changes for the season.  Hope to see other HCH members on Thursday.
