Mark your calendar for a visit to Lake Murray State Park on January 1 for a free guided hike. Meet at Pecan Grove at 1pm for a moderate, 1.6 mile hike along the Anadarche Creek/Lake Shore Loop Trail. Be sure to bring your binoculars, a camera, water and appropriate dress for a cool-weather hike. Afterward, join up at the lodge for hot chocolate and cookies around the fireplace.
