The Skippack Creek Loop trail is well maintained but the trail loop north of Kartz Road, although nice, is not so well maintained. There are many fallen trees, climbing on which may be difficult. The trail is not well marked and required some bush-whacking. Hikers should consider it as an adventure trail. We got off the trails a few times. For most part the trails are flat but at around 7.5 miles some climbing is required.  Hikers should wear long pants, hiking boots and carry hiking poles. Most of the trails and rivulets were  dry and there were no water crossings, however, little rain may change all that. If there is heavy rain just before or on 24th October, we will change the course. I plan to be there rain or not, but hikers should check the weather and prepare accordingly. Based upon above, Class A for 7 Miles, Adventure hike for 2 miles
