Description
We will meet in the Metcalfe Rock parking lot and then arrange ourselves to shuttle to the Kolapore Parking lot. The hike starts by getting some road walking out of the way. Then it's a varied walk past pasture/field/meadow, through cedar stands and under deciduous forest canopy to the base of Metcalfe Rock. Please bring water and a snack.
- Arrive 15 minutes before the start of the hike.
- Wear sturdy footwear and appropriate attire for the weather and the terrain.
Hiking poles are a good idea in any season, especially if the terrain is rocky or slippery. In winter, snowshoes or icers/crampons are needed when conditions dictate.
Wearing appropriate clothing and footwear prevents injuries and shows consideration for a safe and positive group hiking experience. - Always carry I.D. and your health card.
- Bring sufficient water and snacks (or lunch if indicated). A minimum of 1L of water is recommended on all hikes, and 3L is recommended for long, challenging hikes in the heat of the summer.
- Bring sunscreen and insect repellent (for spring and summer hikes).
- Bring your own first aid kit.
- Please leave dogs at home.
