Itinerary:

A daytime, slow-ish paced conditioning option for those of us who are unable to join the after-work gang.

Meet at Crescent Road and 4th St NW - NOT at the top of the stairs. We will follow a variety of dirt and gravel paths up and down along McHugh Bluffs to get warmed up, and then walk over to climb the stairs near the curling club a couple of times.

Bring whatever amount of weight you are comfortable carrying. I'm up to 38lbs (as well as what I've accumulated on my butt over the winter) so please be patient with my slowness :-)
Hikers, it's preferable you bring a pack similar in weight and size to what you would bring on a day hike.
Backpackers, in addition to the day pack specifications, you need to bring the kitchen sink and microwave and then some.

Required Items to Bring:
- layered clothing appropriate to weather conditions

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

Free 2 hour parking is available along Crescent Road - watch signage!
