Explore the Columbia Trail and gnome homes along the trail with GSHNJ Trailblazer Girl Scouts who are leading this hike as part of our Summer Hike series, to develop their leadership skills and support our Trailblazer programming. This approximately 1-mile, flat out-and-back trail is a 1-2 Trefoil level hike appropriate for younger Girl Scouts. We placed a gnome home on a summer hike last year and want to see how the gnomes like it!  At the end of the hike, everyone will have the opportunity to make a gnome nature necklace to take home with them. 
A small bootprint patch is also included with your program fee for each summer hike you attend. Family Ramblers Hiking Club members can register for any of our Summer hikes with a 50 percent discount (code available in the Family Ramblers forum). Not a Family Rambler but interested in more info or registering? See here for details [link to come]
