Moderately Strenuous Shuttle Hike of 7 miles with 325 ft of elevation gain and 1750 ft of elevation loss. During our hike we will visit the old mining area and St Mary Falls. Be sure to bring water, lunch-snacks, hiking boots, and dress for the weather. Expect the 5+ stream crossings to be wet! (Most stepping stones have been washed away) And you might want to take a dip in the river so “Be Prepared”. Sorry No Dogs and being a Wilderness Area limits participation to 10. Will send participants an update a couple of days ahead of the hike. Hike will be led by Howard Davis and to register: visit https://www.meetup.com/charlottesville-patc-hiking-and-trail-love/events
