The Grand Traverse Hiking Club is a Chapter of the North Country Trail Association (NCTA). We maintain 90 miles of the North Country National Scenic Trail in the Grand Traverse Region. Our section begins near Hodenpyl Dam west of Mesick and ends near Starvation Lake north of Kalkaska. We have meetings at 7 PM on the third Tuesday of every month September through May at the Boardman River Nature Center, 1450 Cass Road in Traverse City, Michigan. You can learn more about the group, and download our newsletter at our website: http://www.northcountrytrail.org/gtr/

This additional Yahoo Group site is maintained as a service to our members to allow them to post outings with a short lead time. The public is invited to join us on any of our outings.

If you enjoy our outings & programs, we would appreciate your support by joining our local chapter of the NCTA. An application is available on this site under FILES at the introductory rate of $23 for the first year.
