Day Hike - Fourth of July Creek

0530 at Brickyard Park & Ride in Bothell

The path is steep and arduous, hopefully there is a very wise guru at the top with the meaning of life.

Seriously folks, this is a steep, tough trail. It faces south so it melts out earlier but that also means it can be extremely hot. You'll want at least 3-4 quarts of water.

My goals for the trip:

1. Have Fun

2. Be Safe

3. Learn Something

4. Make it to the top of the ridge.

My expectations for participants:

1. You need to be a strong hiker for this trail.

2. Stay with the group.

3. Carry lots of water.

4. Be respectful of others.

My style:

1. I've got a flexible leadership style that can change to meet changing needs but in general it's pretty casual. You'll often find me at the back of the group. I'm a big believer in servant leadership.

2. If I don't respond to your question right away it's because I'm mulling the answer over in my mind.

3. I am often easily distracted by nature: rocks, trees, flowers, animals, etc.

4. I love puns and jokes and riddles.
