Sunday Day Hike- Torry Ridge

OVERVIEW

So it seems that with this nice weather and all its the perfect time to abandon all responsibility for next week and hike Torry Ridge instead!

This hike has been on my bucket list for a while, and from what I hear its got a fantastic mix of views and water (there’s a massive lake nearby), so it should be pretty dope. We’ll be meeting up at Echols around 10:00 am 7/19/15, and if all goes well we’ll be back around 6:00 pm the same day. The trail we’ll be taking runs for 9.1 miles in a loop, with half on the ridge and half in the valley by the streams. Hiking upward rated it a 4/5 in difficulty, so it’ll be a challenge but by no means impossible. We’ll be following their trail guide; here’s the link:

What To Bring:
-good shoes/change of socks
-2+ liters of water
-A rain Jacket, weather depending
-Sun protection/bugspray
-A lunch and snacks

My car can only fit 3 others, but if any drivers join we can boost that number. Otherwise you’ll be stuck on the waitlist :p. This is also my first time leading a trip, so with any luck we’ll all make it out alive :D.

See you there!
