Lower Juniper Flats

"WINDING ROAD" TO JUNIPER FLATS 
New for the Muleteam, this 2-2.5 mile hike will start at 1416 N. Old Divide Road, a private property behind the “Winding Road” gate. We will hike up to Juniper Flats via a trail marked with cairns and blazes. It takes about an hour to hike up the 700 ft. of elevation with some very light bouldering required near the top. Along the way, you will have spectacular views of Mt. Ballard and Fissure Peak, as well as close-ups of three primitive mines. From the top you can descend on an alternate route that branches off of the ascent trail or walk back via Juniper Flats Road, the longer but gentler way. Lunch will be at the property upon our return. If folks want a longer hike, then they can walk back to town via West Blvd or the ridge trail off of Juniper Flats.
We will meet at the courthouse at 9am Saturday, Jan. 31 and carpool to the property or meet at 9:20 at the property. Bring water and a snack lunch. Hiking poles are optional, and dogs are welcome. Back by early afternoon. Contact Susan Mayes at 610-220-5287 for more information.
