Are you sad because you have a weird knee injury like me and can’t go on a lot of hikes? Or perhaps waking up at the crack of dawn to hike 10 miles up a mountain is simply not appealing to you? Either way, this trip is for you! We will be hiking Turk Mountain, which is an out and back of a grand total of 2.5 miles. Note: There are two Turk Mountain hikes, one of which is very intense and long- we are doing the shorter one!! The trail is supposed to be easy mostly but there is some rock scrambling and steep parts.

Here’s a link with some more info about the trail: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/virginia/turk-mountain-trail

Also, at the summit we’ll make some hot cocoa and hang out :))

What to bring
– water/snacks
– layers
– shoes that you can hike in
– a cup/bottle to drink your hot cocoa in
– fun stories to tell
– some cash in case we need to get a day pass

I will bring
– hot cocoa mix that I acquired from runk
– extra water for hot cocoa
– pot + pocket rocket
