Spring Hike

What is perfect hiking weather in Maryland? A warm day in March - before the ticks come out!

We love Greenbelt Park - it's actually a national park close to our house.

It's got great hiking trails and campsites. We really love it! It's amazing to be so close to a city and have so much wilderness.

It also has so many ticks that each trail head has a bulletin board that asks you to fill out a survey regarding how many ticks you found (on you) and the extent of any illness you have contracted from them.

We only hike there from November to March, unless you count our camping expedition.

But we had a fabulous time on Friday!
