This is an advanced hike, due to the terrain, the length, and the relatively fast pace we'll be walking.

We'll be providing mile updates as we walk so that anyone who isn't planning to do the entire hike can turn back before the halfway point. The group will be completing the entire hike without breaks, so please be confident that you are able to walk 8 miles without stopping OR - if you don't plan to complete the entire hike - make sure you are comfortable navigating your way back to the parking lot on your own.

Is this hike not for you? Don't worry! We'll have more beginner-friendly hikes coming up later this year!
