This trip will be at an easy to moderate pace (1.5-2.0), enough to keep us going and also allowing for stops to enjoy and take in our surroundings along the way. Becky has a playful, educational, and easy-going style. The goal is to enjoy ourselves, learn, be safe, and connect with nature and each other.
