Summer Hike at Bobbit's Hole June 14th 10 am
Date: 6/14/08
Time: 10:00AM - 12:30PM
Location: Eno River State Park
Our first Summer activity will be a hike to Bobbit's Hole at the Eno River State Park on Saturday June 14 from 10 am-1 pm. Bobbit's hole is a lovely spot for a picnic lunch, sketching wildlife, and wading or rock hopping (http://www.trianglehike.com/13/cole-mill-and-bobbits-hole-trails/). The trail is a fairly easy 2.6 mile loop. Note that the trailhead begins at the Cole Mill Access of Eno River State park, further south on Cole Mill Road than the Fews Ford Access we have used on previous hikes. A link including driving direcitons is below.

Wear: Hiking boots/sturdy walking shoes, sunscreen, bug repellant, a hat, class B uniform shirt
Bring: Water bottle, picnic lunch, water shoes (optional, but useful if you don't like wet, muddy walking shoes)
We will provide: A snack and drink for the end of the trail, first aid kit, sketching paper and pencils, buoys to rope off a wading area at Bobbit's hole
