Additionally: •do not touch anyone THE PLAN: All ll romp around the friendly confines of the Waterloo-Pinckney trail starting in Park Lyndon South, which is a Washtenaw County park on the WP trail. This romp will be at a moderate pace (~3mph) over moderately hilly areas for about 12-13 miles. This is largely an out-and-back trail, so if you prefer less miles, the route back is simple. NOTES: - Friendly pets on leashes are allowed - While we are passing by campgrounds, I am not sure if any bathrooms will be open -- but there will be time to go into the woods THE MEETING SPOT: Park Lyndon South is on North Territorial Road about 1 miles east of M-52. WARNING: There is also a Park Lyndon North -- you will have a lonely (but still beautiful) hike if you park there. COSTS: Nothing. There is no charge to park at Park Lyndon.
