Fall 2026 Hiking Series

Before your first hike:
โ๏ธ Arrive a few minutes early. We have sign-in sheets at every trailhead so we can track your completed hikes and start on time.
๐ Everyone needs a signed waiver. Grab one at the trailhead, or download it ahead of time.
๐ฅพ No sign-up, no fee. Just show up.
