# Event Details

- **Event Name**: Dismal Swamp 9.4 Mile (Lake Drummond)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sun, 08 Mar, 2026 at 07:00 am
- **Event Description**: We will meet at the Trailhead Parking Lot at 7AM and head out for the 9.4 Mile in and Out.  Finish Time would be right around 10:30 EST based on average hike times 3MPH and a 10 minute picture and snack time at Lake Drummond.

For those wanting to get a few more miles in, I plan to turn around and hike 2.5 Miles Back out and then 2.5 Miles back in to get a 14.4 Mile Day in.  So if you wanted a shorter hike, you can meet me at 10:30 and hike with me for a 5 miler.

There isn't reliable reception in the parking lot, so if you are late or early....it's a straight shot to the lake and you'll run into us.

The weather could change this up a bit as they are calling for rain late in the day.  It's also going to be a high of 81, yes....you read that right 81!

Recommendations: Electrolytes and some sort of fuel for your legs (carby during the hike and carb/protein after the hike).

I'll have a small medical kit for blisters and some extra snacks/water.

Daylight Savings may affect the start time.  The sun will rise at 7:30 Sunday morning and the gate normally opens at 7.  You may want to bring a torch (headlamp).

See you all Sunday!
