Meet at the Denmark church for either hike at 8:30 am-
For those new potential hikers who are considering coming along with us, we should note that there is only one church in Denmark. It is adjacent to the town offices.
The other thing we might point out is that Denmark has little or no cell phone coverage at the town offices or at the church. They do have cheap gas though at Jim Bob’s to make up for it.
We hike year round, every Friday with a few exceptions on holidays: there is a sensible limit. If the forecast is really bad, hikes may be cancelled or postponed. Ideally cancellations will be announced by Thursday evening. Schedule changes, when necessary, will be announced via email to website subscribers
