Yes, it may be hard to believe with the evening temperatures expected to be in the teens on Friday night, but I'm posting a nighttime hike for this Friday. Let's see who the hardy hikers are!

Due to snow on the trail around the lake, we'll walk on the roads, since the trail can be kind of treacherous with snow on it. This will be about an hour-long walk through the park, followed by libations at our favorite Mexican restaurant nearby afterwards. Look for us under the arch at the far end of the parking lot at the E. Kemper Rd. entrance – the entrance where the boat harbor concession stand is located.

If we get a big snow on Friday, check back here to be sure the hike hasn't been cancelled, since I live quite a ways away from Sharon Woods.
Directions:
Coming from I-275, take exit 46 at Rt. 42/Lebanon Road and go south toward Sharonville. Turn left at the light at E. Kemper Road. Park entrance is on the right about 1/2 mile. Parking lot is on your left just after the toll booth.

    When I posted this hike, I expected tonight's temperature to be in the mid-teens. Current weather forecast is for the 7 p.m. temperature to be 22 degrees - a veritable heat wave!

    Sheila, you will definitely be leading the fast walkers tonight. I've just gotten over shin splints from Spring Grove walking at your pace again!
