Meet at 9:45am in the parking lot at Hopkins Point just past Hopkins Point Lodge for a 10:00am hike start.

Contact Jim Bishop at adk.gvc...@gmail.com with any questions. Dogs are not allowed on this hike. Our hybrid hike consists of 2 hikes that allow us to drop off hikers who prefer a 40-minute to 1-hour easier hike at a slower pace with less elevation change, then continue with the 2nd hike for the rest of the 2 hours at a faster pace with some short climbs. This allows all of us to keep hiking together, when some of our old and new friends need to shorten their hike or some are just starting back hiking after a time off or recovering from surgery.
