The River-to-River Trail Society announces its third scheduled hike of the Spring, 2021 hiking season, on Saturday, March 27, in the Gum Springs area of Johnson County. This hike is free and open to the public. Hikers will visit two waterfalls and the unusual “Easter Basket Arch.” No pre-registration will be required for this hike. Meet at 10:00 a.m. at the New Simpson-Tunnel Hill School, on Route 45 between Ozark and Vienna, Illinois. Social distance will be maintained whenever possible, and hikers must bring a facemask capable of covering the nose, mouth, and chin. No mask, no hike. While hikers need not wear masks while hiking, they must wear them when bunched up or when passing on the trail.  This will be a hike of moderate difficulty, covering about six miles, and intended for people in good health who have done some hiking. Hiking sticks and boots or sturdy shoes are strongly recommended. Hikers should bring their own water and a snack. No dogs, please. For information or directions, call (270) 331-1553.
