Silver Falls Perimeter Trail
About this event
Silver Falls State Park is usually to be avoided on summer weekends, but this trail is only lightly used since it doesn't feature any falls. Instead it winds its way up though a lovely forest which provides shade all the way. Bring water and lunch. When registering, let me know if you'd rather meet in Keizer, Silverton, or at the trailhead. No texts please.
