Talk:Bays Structure Tour
Trip Reports[edit]
11/14/2015 Tim Schaefer Reporting We met at the Bays Park dam at 8:30a for our 11 mile adventure. It wasn't long and we began passing by the structures within the park. We didn't find all of them, but we did see most of them. Having to improvise as we went along, we soon realized that we didn't want to head east on Back Hollow Road. As the trail wiki stated, the trail is a stream and it was flowing on this cold morning. Having already hopped across a soggy grazing pasture and several small streams we turned up Pretty Ridge Trail between the barn and house. This ended up being a difficult navigation as well as the trail was indistinct in parts and lacking some markers. We pushed on up the ridge and eventually found the trail again. We came down the ridge on Kiner Hollow Trail, did the out and back on Laurel Run, then continued east on Kiner Hollow Trail and resumed the original plan. Once we made it to Lakeside Trail, we went left to get some extra mileage to make up for the skipped portion of Back Hollow and met up with the other Expo hikers for a joint return to the nature center. Joining this hike were Aaron Mazuelos and Phyllis Cairnes.
