Group Hiking
Always stay with the group behind the leader. If you don’t want to stay with us, you can always go hiking on your own, though it’s not recommended. Don’t run ahead. If you start to get too far behind, shout ahead before you’re out of range for someone to hear you. I always endeavor to keep track of everyone’s progress, but ultimately it’s your responsibility to communicate what you need.

Safety
Getting everyone through the hike safely is my first priority. You can help everyone and yourself stay safe by being aware of the following:

Rock Fall – This is one of the greatest dangers we face. Don’t unnecessarily cause any extra rock fall, and be certain to alert hikers ahead of you should a rock accidentally start to fall their way.
