Believe it or not, we saw a black bear when we scouted this hike at Catoctin Mountain Park. Wow! We also saw a brilliant scarlet tanager. So definitely bring your binoculars and sense of adventure to this hike.
The loop is about five miles long and the trail is steep and rocky in places so good, sturdy hiking boots are recommended. Bring hiking poles if you have them.
This free event is open to members and non-members of Women Outdoors Mid-Atlantic. Non-members are invited to join us on two events before we ask you to join Women Outdoors. You can join now by clicking on this

Registration closes Thursday, September 8. Please include a telephone number in case we need to let you know about last minute changes.
Thanks.
P.S. If by chance, the president is at Camp David on September 10, then this particular trail will be closed. In that case, we'll hike the Chimney Rock/Wolf Rock loop at Catoctin Mountain Park.
