Description

Beginners & Backpackers Hikes are designed for new hikers (or those just getting back into it and/or want a slower pace) and backpackers who want to start “practicing” with partially loaded packs.  These hikes will be at a slower pace, with lots of breaks and generally easy terrain, building up to harder hikes as the season progresses.  If your a new hiker, bring your 10 essentials.  If your a backpacker, bring a partially loaded pack 15 to 20 lbs. (or more) to start.  Please comment if you are a beginner or a backpacker

Meet at Market Fresh Foods in Dallas for 5:15 pm, leaving by 5:30 pm.

We will hike a loop trail from Uplands to a new subdivision below the Benchlands in Juniper Ridge.  From the subdivision we will loop back to Uplands.  Approx 5 to 7 km with some rolling hills.   This is a great beginner hike 🙂

Bring water, a snack  and dress for the weather.  The trail could have some muddy sections and ticks are out.  Bring a headlamp or flashlight as it may be dark on the way back.

4 dogs maximum, please comment if you are brining your dog.
