Description
Beginners & Backpackers Hikes are designed for new hikers (or those just getting back into it and/or want a slower pace) and backpackers who want to start “practicing” with partially loaded packs. These hikes will be at a slower pace, with lots of breaks and generally easy terrain, building up to harder hikes as the season progresses. If you’re a new hiker, bring your 10 essentials. If you’re a backpacker, bring a partially loaded pack 15 to 20 lbs. (or more) to start. Please comment if you are a beginner or a backpacker
Meet at the Versatile Petro Can (above Costco) for 5:45, leaving by 6pm.
This is an easy loop around McConnell Lake, with a short side trip to the cabins. And a possible dip into the lake if it’s still hot out.
We should be on the trail for approx. 1 1/2 to 2 hours, covering 4 to 6 km. Please bring water, a snack, sunscreen and bug spray.
This is a dog friendly trail, 4 dogs maximum. Please comment if you are bringing your dog.
