Angel, Bonnie, the tween and I laid out this route awhile ago. We tested and measured it. Then Pat the trail master and Dave, the club president walked it. Today our group was lead by the direction-ally challenged Emily. I think. She questioned everything. Pat took notes. I think some she'll use. Some she won't use.
I never realized how long a walk takes when you do this. It was 1:00 when we left the group and they were still at the Library. We had to have the girls to Girl Scouts at 2:00 in Hellertown.
We did discover that that the city added another pedestrian crossing sign, which knocked off our count in a direction. And that the fencing was down at Lafayette College's new arts campus. And that there was a trash cleanup on the Arts trail. Outside of that, no surprises.
When Pat and Dave did the walk, they did a small rerouting to avoid triangles. That is quite the hill. Some of the older members had a little difficulty. I waited at the top. If I stopped. There would be no starting again.
There was 8 in our group including Pat, Angel and myself. Another group from the Susquehanna Rovers left about 15 minutes earlier. And a pair of Rovers came to do the bike portion on the towpath. They did the walk yesterday.

Hoping to walk tomorrow, but downpours are expected. Of course, Angel has the weekend off.
