Description:

******Trip cancelled due to weather.******
**Meet: outdoor eating area near Market of Choice, 29th and Willamette. Departing at 9:30 am.
There are some steep, muddy portions of trails, a creek crossing, and some steep city streets. Moderate-paced hike in South Hills to Ridgeline trail. We will hike city streets and many hidden connector paths up to the Blanton Ridgeline Trailhead. At SouthRidge City Park we will take a break for snacking and then continue on the Ridgeline. We will descend from the Ridgeline to Willamette Street, then walk down the Willamette Street sidewalk to 46th. Then we loop our way back to our starting point. Our route is circuitous—group must stay together. Depending on interest, drinks and/or snacks upon return to Market of Choice and surrounding shops. Hikers should be in current good conditioning and able to hike hilly terrain such as Spencer Butte. Trip will be canceled if any ice or windy conditions. Mileage and elevation is approximate.
