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. Members are welcome to sign up to help answer questions.

Drive past the Laurelwood Golf Course up 27th St then at the top of the hill turn right onto Spring Blvd, a one lane road. When Spring Blvd ends at a T intersection, turn left and immediately look for the Obsidians sign and driveway on your right. Enter the driveway and follow the gravel road to the parking areas and Lodge. The Lodge is hard to find so if you want to view the map, go to the Obsidian home page. http://obsidians.org/lodgemap.htm

Trip Report

Twenty-two people (yes, you read that right) participated in this monthly hike. The guests knew of the Obsidians via word of mouth or through internet searching. One guest had only been in the area for five days as part of the Northwest Job Corp. Clearly this hike is meeting the needs of people wanting info about our outdoor club. Denise did a great job leading us through Hendricks Park and took us to a Paperbush tree that had wonderfully fragrant blossoms. Members: thank you for joining the hike. We cannot do it without your support.
