TRAIL PARTY DETAILS
TRAILS + ICE CREAM
What could be better than ice cream and trails?! Join us at 6pm on Wednesday August 14th at the West Essex Trail in Verona, NJ. This is a no-drop event - all paces of runners are welcome. Sasquatch is paying for Sassquad Members' ice cream! If you're not a Member, please bring $ for ice cream. Please RSVP!
ROUTE DESCRIPTION
We'll do an out and back run on the West Essex Trail and then get ice cream at The Towne Scoop. The West Essex Trail is a flat, crushed-gravel trail. The beauty of doing an out-and-back is that you can turn around at anytime. It's 3 miles to the end of the trail, so folks who want to run the entire length can plan on 6 miles round-trip for the out-and-back. Sunset is at 8pm so you will not need a headlamp. There are no restrooms at the trailhead.
BYO-EVERYTHING
Bring whatever you'll need to self-support your run/hike! You'll want to have a pair of running shoes (road shoes will work for this trail!), a water bottle or hydration pack and food/snacks. Non-Members please bring $ for ice cream afterwards.
GETTING TO THE MEET-UP
We'll meet-up at the start of the West Essex Trail. The trail starts right next to the tennis courts at Verona High School. You can park on the street next to the start of the trail. After the run, we'll head over to the TowneScoop, just 1 mile from the trails.
