Take a Hike - Bell Mills (Moderate)

Take a Hike! Join the crew for a hike from Bells Mills West Trailhead. \~4.5 miles Agenda - Take Note! 9:45 a.m. - Meet and Greet at the Bells Mills Road West (Upper) parking lot. 10:00 a.m. - WE ARE LEAVING! Not kidding, don't miss us! 12:00 p.m. - End of hike (approximately) We're going to take the party to the other side of Forbidden Drive! THIS EVENT IS CONTINGENT UPON THE WEATHER & MAY BE CANCELLED SHOULD THERE BE LIGHTNING. A Fun Challenge If you're looking for a fun challenge, this is it! Nature will be all over you by the time we're done. This is a great event to talk and get to know other members. *WARNING*: Our hike is not a flat-terrain walk like the path along Kelly Drive; this is a hike. The trails are hilly and will take us into wooded areas, so I wouldn't recommend this for someone with serious joint problems. Wear sturdy hiking boots/sneakers or regular sneakers with good traction that you won't mind getting dirty or muddy. I don't want to leave a fallen warrior behind, but I will! Also suggested is a bottle of water. Bug spray, sunscreen, and a hat/scarf are also helpful, but not usually necessary. Bring your EpiPen or inhaler too (better safe than sorry). FOR THOSE WITH BIG HAIR, BRAID OR TIE YOUR HAIR DOWN...I've had an 8-legged hitchhiker once land on my hair and try to come home with me. Leave the makeup and cologne at home, because we are going to sweat a little. This area has tons of gravel and rocks, and inclines to get you feeling the burn. Bring your hiking pole if you have one. This is a quiet area that is frequented by the occasional jogger, biker, hiker, and folks walking dogs. Just be aware of your surroundings and park in the parking lot. *By RSVP'ing, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Black Everywhere - Philadelphia Group Organizers, Co-Organizers, Asst.
