We will meet at the parking lot on Victoria Rd next to the river near where the Cliff Top trail starts and will hike along the RLT 1 to the Smith Property Loop. We'll walk around the loop and then head back to Victoria Rd on the same trail, seeing everything from a completely different perspective on the way back. We should be able to see some early signs of fall: wildflowers, changing leaves, migrating birds, and more.
