About this event
This trail has become the leader's favorite hike. There are no waterfalls, but there are many old-growth trees and lots of green ferns, etc.- a gorgeous hike. While the usual Silver Falls Trails will likely be crowded with hikers, on the Buck Mountain Trail, we will only encounter a few horses and bikes-very manageable. Be prepared for muddy conditions though.
Please contact the leader by Noon the day prior to learn the meeting place and time.
