About This Event

Let’s go to the Unitas on this lightly traveled trail to beautiful Haystack Lake.

It’s a little drive but worth the distance, when we hike on this easy trail to lovely Haystack Lake. We will pass three other lakes on the way, take our time to enjoy the solitude, while sipping on a lovely Hibiscus Gin and Tonic. We’ll do it potluck style, some can bring the mixers (sans ice), some can bring the gin and some can bring snacks to share!

TRAIL RATING: Easy (377 feet of elevation gain)

LENGTH: 5.3 miles RT

CARPOOLING: Watch for an email from over50.whs@gmail.com about 5-7 days before the event for coordination.
