Description	REVISED: We will start at the Nugedzi parking lot and hike up the old logging road toward Beech’s Mtn. The Trail Committee has recently brushed and improved this route. We will visit Noel’s Knoll for great views and then return to the saddle between Beech’s and Noel’s Knoll. From there we will follow a new and impressive trail which descends through some bluffs with views and then continues more steeply down to the Morte Lake trail. As this is hiked in a straight line, we will need a car shuffle ending at the Morte Lake parking lot. Roughly 7.5km, 4 hours, 300m ascent and more than 400m descent.
Meeting Place	Community Centre parking lot
Departure Time	9:00, as an early-ish start for the heat.
Difficulty	Challenging. This trip will work your legs.
Costs	No
Trip limits	10
Dogs?	No
Notes:	Bring poles if you use them. We will not do this if the weather is poor and may start earlier if it is hot.
