To keep warm and to ensure the safety of participants, we will be hiking at a steady brisk pace with few short breaks along the way.  Please bring plenty of water and snacks/lunch and make sure to dress according to the weather conditions presented on hike day.

    As we need to be prepared for variable weather and trail conditions, you will be required to carry icers and snowshoes with you on each hike. You may need to wear either of these items for portions of the hike and carry them when not needed, so please ensure you have a system to put your snowshoes on or in your pack.   When the snow is deep, each hiker should be prepared to take a turn blazing trail.

    This will be a team effort from start to finish! Who wants to join the team?

    As we all know Mother Nature can throw us curve balls at times. I will ask each hiker to please respect the decisions of the leader in case of inclement weather/road & parking conditions. We may need to adjust our meeting location and possibly postpone and reschedule the hike.  Hikers will be advised either the night before or in the early morning of cancellations.  March 9&16 are set aside for possible rescheduled hikes.
