About this event

February is a good month to stay out of the mud.  This 1-1/2 to 2 hour sidewalk route is through the historic and hilly part of south Salem where mansions rub shoulders with bungalows.  It fits the guidelines for "easy," but in places it can seem a little difficult if you aren't used to walking short distances uphill.  Time and meeting place upon registering via email or phone (no texts).
