At the top\, continue straight and around to the left\, down for 3/4 mile\, arriving back at the social event area for 30-60 minutes. \nPlease bring food and drink to share. \nNext we’ll turn back and head the way we came down a mostly flat section for about a mile until we arrive back at the trail head.
