Description


The plan is to hike the entire 40 mile loop in 2 days with a short night hike into camp on Friday night. The starting point would be Rt 504 and we would hike counter clockwise and camp either at Rock Run or Hall Run Friday night.

Saturday will be a long 20mile+ day. We will start early and hike late. Camping Saturday night will be south of Rt 504 either on Six Mile Run north of Wolf Rocks or on Six Mile Run South of Wolf Rocks.

Sunday will be about 13 to 15 miles and we will complete the loop back at PA 504. There are some scenic views from the Allegheny Front that we will get to see on Sunday.

Should be a good time, but it will be a tough hike with big mile days, strong hikers only.
