HIKE DESCRIPTION
Pace will be approx. 2-2.25 mph and if you prefer a faster hike, this hike is definitely not for you. Slower paced enjoy-the-woods hike to burn some holiday calories, nobody gets left behind and group stays together. There are no restrooms at this trailhead so please prepare beforehand.

You can google 1070 Weir Court, Fort Mill SC. This is a private residence but the parking lot is right next to this house. This address is ONLY for GPS purposes and not a meeting place, i.e. please don't knock on their door :-)

Leashed friendly pets who are people and dog friendly are welcomed.

Let's plan to meet in the parking lot at 9:15 am and start hiking promptly at 9:30 am. Plan about 2.0 - 2.5 hours on the trail. Round Trip is 3.8 miles and a nice mostly flat walk in the woods along the Catawba River and also offers one viewing platform at the beginning (very slight incline at this section). The trail is mostly smooth with a few roots and rocks so watch your step. The trail borders a new housing development called Masons Bend.

DIRECTIONS:
Open the Carolina Thread Trail link above to get Google Directions from your home. While travelling on 77 South, take Sutton Road Exit 83 and turn right. Upon entering the traffic circle, take the Masons Bend Drive (left side of traffic circle). Then take Left on Crawfish, Left on Weir to the very end of the road – it deadends into the Mason's Bend / Founders Trailhead parking lot.

Trekking poles if you like them, trail is mostly flat / easy
Dry wick clothes / scarves, gloves, hats, layers depending on weather
