Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue.
This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary.

Itinerary:

Come join us on this brisk rain-or-shine stroll along the river at Johnson's Ferry North. We'll meet in the parking lot, head out along the river and double back a few times along the overlapping trails, absorbing the unique sights and sounds of the ecosystem surrounding the river.

This is NOT a fast, fitness hike, however, we will 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

Your SOH (sense of humor)

How to Get There:
Event Directions:

I will email participants a couple of days before the event, with 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.

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.
