Distance: abt ~14 - 19km return Elevation gain: abt ~750 - 1000m(gain/loss) Proper hiking boots - Sorry NO sneakers / sandals / hiking trail runners or Jeans. thx ********** Micro-Spikes required. ********** The rounded crest of Forgetmenot Ridge offers fulfilling views. The trail begins with an initial steep ascent, however we will be rewarded with a scenic 3km alpine cruise after our efforts. The trail should give great views of the foothills and give us a great October workout. PLEASE NOTE: This coordinator likes to explore this area- therefore, elevation and distance might vary abit from above. TIP for NW members:. PACE: Relaxed pace when doing the uphill portions and moderate for the balance. If you like to hike fast and be way ahead of the group, please sign up for another hike. If weather is no longer nice/sunny and takes a turn...this event will get cancelled-email to go out. Note that COC event coordinators are volunteers and are NOT trained guides.
