Have you travelled in the last 14
days? I'M BACK!. Well sort of....at 50% capacity level. Please join me this Wednesday for two hours of grueling uphill/downhill hiking! Your coordinator is recovering from shoulder reconstruction surgery so will be taking a very slow and cautious approach to this hike.
Distance: 6.6km round trip You will be hiking at your own pace but will need to turn around and head back down regardless of your position after 65 minutes. That will allow you 55 minutes to come down from the turnaround point. We would like everyone to meet back at the event parking lot by 8:00pm. A headlamp is required and should always be in your pack as you never know what may happen in the mountains. Note this hike is NOT suitable for beginners or folks who are not completely familiar with this hike 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. We will begin our 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 of you interested in joining some of us for an apre-hike snack/drink, we will be going to the Powderhorn Saloon after the hike.
