Listen up, Trail Dogs!
Time to start thinking about our Saturday run. This week we’ll be doing a 10.5 mile loop that highlights two of our wonderful trails as well as a point of historical interest here in MoCo. We’ll start out heading down the Seneca Ridge Trail (6 miles) to the ruins of the historic Black Rock Mill (great for a photo op). Then we’ll head back up on the other side of the creek on the Seneca Greenway. This section of the Greenway has seen some serious re-routing over the past couple of years so parts of it will look a bit different. It is also about .5 miles longer than it used to be. Altogether that leg is about 4.25 miles. You might have to add on at the end to get to 10.5.
As usual, we’ll provide liquids and goodies back at the parking area (Mmmm, mini-cokes, dill Pistachios, Chips, etc.). We readily accept donations (U.S.$, no rubles). Anyway, I can blab on and on but why waste your time? Just c’mon out on Saturday and we can chat on the trail!
