Meet at the Obsidian Lodge to start the hike on the Ribbon Trail to Hendricks Park. This is an opportunity to find out about the Obsidians and see our lodge. The Lodge is hard to find so I suggest you get directions and map from Obsidian home page. It is not necessary to do the hike if you have concerns about meeting people on the trail.

Trip Report

Janet coordinated another very successful Get Acquainted hike. She personally contacted each participant before the hike and during the hike we sprinkled members throughtout the extended line in order to offer welcoming conversation to all. Vicky Hanson proved to be an excellent Obsidian ambassador while Mike Smith generously offered so stay behind to monitor the lodge. Jane and Peter Kay joined us, with Peter having just completed his third trip earlier that morning - way to jump right in, Peter! New member Steve Denison brought his wife and brother-in-law to tour the lodge.

Beautiful sunny morning for a fall walk in the woods.
