We will be hiking from Stevenson Forest Preserve to and thru Robert H. Treman State Park. Distance 8.8 miles (there will be no shorter hike offered). We start the hike along the Stevenson Forest Preserve for about .5 mile and then have an early road walk with an uphill on Porter Hill Road. Overall, we will be going on a descending plane on the hike. Poles are recommended. On the way, we will have an option of going thru the Bock-Harvey Preserve and will pass nearby the Pinecreek Campground. We will enter the State Park at Woodard Road. The trail parallels the Enfield Creek. Please come out and join your fellow hikers to get those legs moving on our spring hike in honor of Wally Wood.
