SUMMARY:Tuesday Trekkers-Low Impact Hike
DESCRIPTION:The term “low impact hiking” means that our hikes are shorter than other hiking groups\, and we try to avoid challenging hills.  Our hikes are usually about 3 miles. It’s an interesting experience to lead a hike\, so we are always on the lookout for volunteer leaders.  If you have any questions or suggestions\, please contact Heather Steiner\, steinerhm@aol.com or Ed Gorny\, ejgorny@gmail.com. \nPlease meet at 7:45 a.m. for an 8:00 a.m. departure from the parking lot on the south side of the Pinetop McDonalds. Suggested rideshare for short drives $2 person; longer drives $5 per person. \nBuena Vista: This is the closest trail to Show Low. It follows portions of old logging roads through oak trees.
