Member Only Information (login to view):[members_logged_in]

We’re hiking Four Notch Loop.  It is in the Sam Houston National Forest a fair distance from civilization. We’ll hike the loop at a 2-3 mile/hour pace.  The trail is relatively flat but has many gullies to cross.

This is an advanced hike – please be confident that you can keep pace, and come prepared.  You must be physically fit, and with the appropriate gear for this 5-6 hour hike!

You will need:  

* sturdy, water-resistant/proof hiking shoes/boots, and hiking poles

* at least 3 liters of water, carb-heavy snacks (i.e. nuts, dried fruit, power bar), picnic lunch, electrolytes (separate from water)

* We practice Leave No trace principles so everything packed in must be packed out – bring a personal trash bag

This is a good trail for backpacking training!  Wear the shoes/boots and loaded backpack you will use on your upcoming hiking trips for great training!

Bring dry socks and shoes to wear after the hike. We can decide after the hike if we want to dine in Willis.
