A hike in the woods that is steep and rough in places. The stats listed are for Central Peak and an approximation - there are less busy options for a dinner spot. Bring a sack dinner. We will hike at a moderate pace (approx. 2 mph), our goal is to condition for summer hikes and finish in daylight. All hikers must be capable of that pace and carry a headlamp just in case.
I am allowing one dog and only one dog on this hike. I have hiked outside the club with Raven and seen that she has a good owner who keeps her close on a leash and packs out the bag. The roster size is the number of heartbeats, human or not. I have factored Raven in the count. I expect the rest of the roster to fill up with people. Do not bring your pet. People with allergies, use your own judgement.
