Description:

Meet at the Obsidian Lodge to start the hike on the Ribbon Trail to Hendricks Park and back. This is an opportunity to find out about the Obsidians, get acquainted with members, and visit our lodge. This hike through the woods has a few short bursts of steep up and down hill. We will be done around noon. Members are welcome to sign up to help answer questions.

The Lodge is not easy to find so you may want to go to https://obsidians.org/directions/.
When Spring Blvd ends at a T intersection, turn left and immediately look for the Obsidians sign and driveway on your right.

Trip Report

On a brisk morning, 15 people hiked from the lodge to Hendricks Park and back. Lively conversations took place along the way. A big thank you to the Obsidians who joined in. These GA hikes would not be successful without your expertise and enthusiasm for the club. This was a morning well spent.
