This Chester Lake trip was originally posted by Jo Riggs, but was seriously over-subscribed, so we decided to post a second trip with a 30 minute difference in the starting time. This worked out very well, with both groups getting together for a very leisurely lunch (1.5 hours!) at the viewpoint. We had a total of 24 hikers in the two groups. The weather was fantastic. Total distance 11.4 km and 467 m elevation gain. Thanks to: Terry, Susan, Sheila, Janice, Clifton, Chip, Jane, Lenard, Deborah and Cheryl for coming out to join me, and thank you Jo for selecting such a great hike. John c/s
