What to bring:

• Trekking poles recommended
• Microspikes/Yaktrax (recommended in winter)
  +Positive attitude and a spirit for adventure are a must on my hikes
• • Always a good practice to be equipped with The 10 essentials during hikes.

My hiking style is to stop frequently by creeks, wild-flower meadows, geological marvels and conversation, and not to rush through it. We stay together as a group. I give preference to new members, and those with good attendance record and complete profile. I value those who had a very positive impression on me during my previous hike. Please don't feel entitled to a spot. I reserve the right to remove anyone from the hike if there are not a good fitness or social fit with my hikes. Canceling after 8 pm on the the day before hike will result in a no-show on your record.
