Group Expectations:

Safety: Personal safety and group safety. We stay together as a group. If someone needs a party separation, another hiker waits nearby. If there is a creek crossing, or intersection, we wait for everyone.

If you have any health concerns/medications, please let us know and how we can support you. Please bring your 10 essentials, poles.

Fun: This is meant to be an enjoyable, learning experience at a 1.5-2 pace. Let’s have fun, be safe, and enjoy one another’s company.

Learning: We are always learning how to be better stewards, how to prepare better for conditioning hiking, how to bring the best gear, etc. Let’s be curious and learn from each other.
