Cochran Mill Park
Sunday, 2/9/2014

We are going back to Cochran Mill Feb 9th in the daytime! Last fall we were there in the sun for a sprint/middle combination and went east. This time we are having classic courses, and brown and above will go west to the boulder fields. We have not been out there in the daytime in years, so this will be a surprise for lots of people. Orange and below will do a waterfall tour, including crossing one of the creeks on top of an old dam - very picturesque - bring a camera!

The current plan is for only the red course to ford the big creek.

We will start at the picnic shelter. Parking fee required.
