April 6, 2019 Hike Summary written by Chris Drone
What a HIke!! Bob Mulcahy led 18 of us, including 4-5 new hikers, over trails in & around many coves of Kinkaid lake. I had never been there. With the warm temps, & humidity, many were down to T-shirts by lunch time. The area is quite rolling,so, for a few, it was challenging. Saw pelicans & geese, Heard & saw Lots of fishing boats powering around the lake too. Plants were flowering & buds were popping out. We ate lunch at a nice picnic area. Going back in, we met up with quite a few others out for a hike themselves. Interesting to me, was the lack of underbrush vegetation on the rolling ridges & valleys. Yes, we did ‘double-digits’ in total mileage…but, Bob Mulcahys’ muffins….mmmm…
Yes, lots of rolling up and down trail hiking. One slithering resident of the area as we explored the trail. Some what of a difficult trail to follow. I suspect not too many do the entire trail. Thanks to the leaders for keeping us on track.
