About this Event
We will hike one-way on the historic Rockpile Trail from the Recreation Area to Southport, the site of a 19th Century steamboat port and town.
Note: We will meet at the Nature Trails Parking lot, just off Reservation Road. We will leave some cars here and carpool the short distance to the trailhead at Rockpile Recreation Area, just below historic Wilson Dam.

Bring lunch, snacks and water. Wear sturdy footwear. A hiking pole and insect spray are recommended.
Description: Moderately-rigorous, with many steep uphills and downhills. I estimate this hike to be 3 ½ to 4 miles long.
