MEETING SPOT:
MEETING TIME:
We start at 9:00am. I will guide everyone through a warmup and then we will start the hike. Please aim to arrive by 8:45am.
Carpool requests:
I provide a carpool forum in the event where drivers and passengers can arrange with each other for rides. Please don't involve the hike leader in carpool arrangements. It is the responsibility of each hiker to find their own transportation. You can rent a car, invite a friend, co-worker, or family member who drives to the event, or post in the event for a carpool. Please ensure your spot is booked before taking a spot in someone's carpool.
