On the Trails

Two good hikes this past weekend. Saturday, 8 of us headed out for the Clifton Gorge area by Yellow Springs, Ohio. We did 6.7 miles through John Bryan State Park and Clifton Gorge Natural Area. The Little Miami River was running very high due to the recent heavy rains. Temps were in the upper 40s and low 50s, with cloudy skies. After a good leg stretch, most of us headed for the fabled Young's Dairy, for an ice cream extravaganza [except D, who opted for chili and fries].

Sunday, 6 of us went on the trails at Shawnee Lookout County Park, overlooking the Ohio River and the Great Miami River. An early cloudy start soon gave way to pouring rains, so we cut our trip short at 3.7 miles or so. Again, the trail then led to the Cleves Drive-In, a pretty good place.
