About
START YOUR DAY WITH A LOLLIPOP! Please join me for a hike at Island Ford CRNRA. We will meet in the Island Ferry Lot (first lot on the left, very near the entrance) and hike the Lollipop Trail first. After that, we will head down to Hewlett Pond and then the visitor center for a bathroom break. We will then hike back up to the Island Ferry Lot. I plan for us to average about 2.6 mph, faster by the river, slower in the hills. There will be a little over 600 feet of elevation gain, so this is not a hike for beginners. I have allowed for 2 3/4 hours to accommodate a bathroom break at the visitor center. I'll give information on weather conditions in the pre-hike email. Please arrive by 9:50 for a hike description and introductions. We will start promptly at 10:00. Arrive earlier if you need to use the restroom or to buy a park pass. Restrooms and passes are available at the visitor center which is located at the end of the entrance road. Daily passes are $5. DO NOT LEAVE ANY VALUABLES IN YOUR CAR. THERE HAVE BEEN BREAK-INS. LEAVE THEM AT HOME OR PUT THEM IN YOUR TRUNK.
