- Eno Quarry: walk, read, and connectEno River State Park - Pleasant Green Parking, Durham, NC
Join us for a Sunday afternoon walk on the Laurel Bluffs Trail to Eno Quarry to spend some time in nature, make new friends or catch up with old ones, and read in a scenic place. It's about 3 miles total (1.5 each way), mostly gentle terrain with a little bit of elevation change and lots of nice scenery, including the Eno Quarry where we'll stop for about 30 minutes to read, talk, meditate, write or whatever quiet activity you want to do. You can see more about the trail here: https://www.alltrails.com/trail/us/north-carolina/laurel-bluffs-trail
We'll meet at 3:00pm on Sunday November 24 in the parking lot of Eno River State Park – Pleasant Green Access: 4770 Pleasant Green Rd, Durham, NC 27705 https://maps.app.goo.gl/yDShAPbHvGD7Bxbf6
We'll get started a few minutes after 3:00 and aim to be back at the parking lot before it gets dark. It might be useful to bring a flashlight or headlamp in your pack in case we get delayed - it gets dark early this time of year!
Setting a low limit on attendance for this one because the parking lot is pretty small. If you're able to carpool with someone else, that would be great! And if you sign up and later realize you can no longer come, please change your RSVP to indicate that, so it will open up your space for someone on the waitlist. If you're on the waitlist, check Meetup the day of the event, because often people drop out late and spaces open up at the last minute.
A couple of other notes:
- Participation in this hike and any of the events organized by this group are at your own risk. These hikes are on public and well-used trails, but there may be dangers like tripping over tree roots, snake or insect bites, poison ivy, or other unpredictable risks. By joining this event you agree not to hold the organizers responsible for any injuries, and that you understand that you participate at your own risk.
- Meetup charges the organizers a pretty substantial fee ($300 per year) to use this platform. There's a fundraising link on this page and the group's homepage - if you're able to contribute $5 or $10 we'd appreciate your help in covering the costs. Thanks! [Fundraising target reached! Thanks to everyone who contributed!]
See you soon!
