IMPORTANT - WHEN SIGNING UP FOR THIS
EVENT,
PLEASE ENSURE YOU PROVIDE ANSWERS TO THE
TWO
QUESTIONS REGARDING CARPOOL LOCATION AND
APRÈS-HIKE SOCIAL PARTICIPATION, as it is
difficult to
assign carpooling without knowing your
preferences.
Distance: 7km round trip This will be the season ender for the Wednesday Evening Prairie Mountain Get Fit Hike & Apre-Hike Social! The event will go ahead if there are showers but may be cancelled if there are likely to be thunderstorms or heavy rain. An email will be sent by 2:00 pm on Wednesday if we have to cancel the event. You will be hiking at your own pace but will need to turn around and head back down regardless of your position after 85 minutes. That will allow you 65 minutes to come down from the turnaround point. We would like everyone to be down by 8:30 pm at the latest. Note this hike is NOT suitable for beginners as we will hike at a brisk or fast pace and you will possibly be hiking on your own as the group may split depending on your individual pace. The event is geared towards personal best times so be prepared to hike up and down on your own in the event you do not find a compatible hiking partner. People will begin their ascent at 6:00 pm sharp so please plan to be there at least 10 minutes beforehand. We will all meet at the trailhead/parking area as a group at the end of the hike before leaving. For those who may be interested - after returning to the trailhead/parking area, we will be heading over to the Bragg Creek PowderHorn Saloon for a quick après-hike drink and/or pub fair.
Once again, when registering for this
event, please indicate in
the notes what your preferred carpool
location is (Richmond
Road Canadian Tire, Fish Creek C-Train
Station, or Shouldice
Arena/Park) and whether you are willing to
take part in the
après-hike social. Please note, not all
carpool locations may
be an option. It will depend on the level
of interest for each
location. As the event is a hike and apre-hike social, carpooling arrangements may not be available for those who wish not to attend the apre-hike social.
