Join Edie Mesick, one of the trail building volunteers for a hike on the beautiful Andes Rail Trail. The trail starts with an approximately 1 mile out walk on the level railbed followed by a 2 mile round loop trip (hilly, so somewhat more difficult hike on the Bullet Hole Spur Trail). The Rail Trail and Bullet Hole Spur offer wonderful views and a lovely hiking experience.

We’ll walk the railbed portion, and if the group is so inclined, we will continue on the Bullet Hole Spur making for a 4 mile round trip hike. Meet at the train depot on Cabin Hill Road
