 iculty Level: D2-D3 (easy to moderate)\nCarpool Time: 8:30 am at Intown Co
 mmunity Church\nCarpool Cost: $10 per person\nHike Leader: Rony\n\n\nLocat
 ed between Atlanta and Athens\, Fort Yargo State Park features a 1792 log 
 fort built by settlers for protection against Creek and Cherokee Indians. 
 Today\, visitors come to Fort Yargo for its wide variety of outdoor recrea
 tion and scenery.  We will hike the Lake Loop Trail which although long h
 as no steep inclines so it is easy to hike. A 260-acre lake offers a large
  swimming beach\, fishing and boat ramps.\n\nLake Loop Trail (yellow blaz
 es)\n7-mile loop\, easy to moderate\n\nThis relatively flat trail travels 
 7 miles around the lake and is open to both foot traffic and bicycles. The
  trail hugs the shoreline in many locations\, offering good wildlife viewi
 ng. Hikers and riders may see white-tailed deer\, squirrels\, rabbits\, ra
 ccoons and turtles. It also travels into wooded uplands for different view
 s of plants and trees. Although it looks like an easy walk around the lake
 \, the distance can be deceiving. Be prepared for three to four hours of w
 alking the entire 7-mile loop.\n\nBeach/Swim\nThere is a nice beach area w
 here we will go for a swim / hangout. There are changing rooms at the beac
 h area.\n\nThings to Bring:\n-backpack\n-hiking boots/shoes or strong tenn
