Itinerary:

This series of TUESDAYS w/ NATURE hikes - a gentle nod to Mitch Albom’s Tuesdays with Morrie - are intended for us to briskly wander, rain or shine, through the woods, while we let our minds wander through thoughts of love, death, aging, forgiveness, the meaning of life, etc.

Deep? Yes! But wait... there's more!

1. Beat the summer heat,

2. Catch a spectacular sunrise, and

3. Get your daily workout in before breakfast.

That's a win-win-win by any standards. BTW, this is NOT a fast, fitness hike, but I do need to be home before dinner, so we’ll maintain a decent mind-body pace of 2 to 2.5 mph with a couple of hydration breaks along the way!

Required Items to Bring:

Weather appropriate clothing

Hiking boots/shoes w/ good traction

Water (2 to 3 litres), and

Your SOH (sense of humor)

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

Trekking poles

Hat & sunglasses

Raingear or poncho (just in case)

Snack

Camera

How to Get There:

Event Directions:

On the day before the event, I will email participants the exact meeting location and detailed directions.

Notes:

Please, no unregistered guests or +Ones!
Late cancellations, particularly within 36 hours of the event, make it difficult for those on the waitlist to attend. Please be courteous to your fellow AOC members and cancel with as much notice as possible.
Please note: Members who sign up and fail to attend an event with an active waitlist, will automatically earn a “no show.”
If you need to get in touch with me, the best way is to TEXT me with your NAME at 4O4 7-Five-4 5OO5.
I usually hike RAIN-or-SHINE! However, in case of severe weather or other unforeseen emergencies that warrant a cancellation, I will text/email you at least TWO HOURS before the start of the event.

* We encourage all members to follow our Etiquette Guidelines while participating in AOC events.

Cost Includes:

There is no cost for this event.

CRNRA charges a parking fee so bring $5 cash for a daily parking pass OR display your CRNRA pass!

Cancellation/Partial Attendance: Please review the AOC cancellation policy.
*Note:

If Life happens, and you need to cancel, please go to the AOC website and deregister by the deadline. If the site will not cooperate, TEXT me with your NAME at 4O4 7-Five-4 5OO5. FYI, thanks to those annoying robocalls, calling me will send you to my voicemail, but feel free to leave a message.

In order to earn credit for this event, participants must begin and complete the entire hike/event with the group, or within the stated time frame.
