Be at parking lot at 8 am sharp! 

For this trip, our destination stops at the middle falls. We will take our time, get warmed up enjoy the forest in the early season. 

I drive a grey Nissan Rogue and I'll have a red bandana on my day pack to easily identify me.  Once we arrive at the TH, we will go over a few things as a group at 8, introduce ourselves, and get to hiking shortly after.

Goals: 

• To reach the middle falls, enjoy a small snack and get some group photos to celebrate the day's success!
• Foster community and belonging. 
• Lead and learn in a collaborative spirit.
• Foster compassion, understanding and curiosity with one another, and in nature.
• Have fun, be safe and enjoy one another's company.

Expectations:

• Commitment to arrive on time at the trailhead, prepared and ready to be social and enjoy the trip.
• Commitment to communicate with me for any concerns and/or questions before and during the trip.
• Commitment to having fun.
• The group will stay together. This means seeing a head in front and in back of you at all times. 

Style:

• Through actions and words, I lead through an inclusive lens.
• I foster community within the group.
• I lead a slower to moderate pace, allowing for flexibility between the two.  

More to come in the 'hello hiker' email that will be sent out a week before the trip.
