We are going to check out some of the hiking trails in Ward Pound Ridge Park. This hike should be 5-6 miles of fairly easy terrain on woods roads with some short steeper sections on hiking trails. Pound Ridge has about 35-40 miles of trails.

The hike is starting at 8:45 so that we can miss the parking fee of 8 dollars starting at 9am

Friendly, well behaved dogs are welcome, but should be on a leash (6ft or less).

Directions
From I684 take exit 6 route 35 East to Cross River. Take a right on Route 121 a short distance to entrance of park on the left. We will be meeting in the Michigan road parking area at the end of Michigan Road. After entering the park make the first paved right turn and follow that to the end. It is about 1 mile from the entrance to the parking area.

    •  A great hike with an enjoyable group of people and one adorable dog. Kind of a tough climb (for me anyway) to the top but well worth the effort. Thanks Jim!! 
    •  Well chosen. Beautiful area. Very convenient. Just the right level of difficulty.

       The weather was great and so was sitting at at the overlook watching the birds fly by on the wind. The short visit to one of the Leathermans caves was interresting.
