We will hike the Wind Cave Trail with 800ft of elevation and at a distance of 3 miles it is rated as difficult. The trail is steep and rocky, so it is encouraged you bring proper footwear and if balance is an issue trekking poles are great to have. Please bring plenty of water and a snack for the top cave. Water and bathrooms are available at trailhead. Make sure to bring a headlamp or flashlight with extra batteries or a fresh charge. MEETING LOCATION: Wind cave parking lot, next to the bathrooms, by the kiosk. Limit 20 participants.
