Living in southeastern PA I got into day hiking a couple of years ago when I lost my full-time job and switched over to freelancing (graphic design). Not too far from me is Ridley Creek State Park, which has a number of trails and side paths to take, which was fine since I could still get cell phone reception, but far enough away from the constant stream of noise that a typical suburb makes during the workweek. I really do not consider myself a real hiker, since I do the White Trail, which is only around 5.1 miles in little over an hour. There are some decent grades, which was challenging at first, but since I put on a ton of leg muscle, I was getting to the point where I would run up most of the steeper hills. Did Valley Forge park a couple of times, but it is still pretty much in the middle of a suburban area, so no matter where you go you still hear the background noise of cars. The Horseshoe trail was something I remember hearing my cousin talk about when he was in Boy Scouts as a kid, and was trying to find more information about.  Anyone ever hike this trail?
