Description: Please join us as we kick off our Tuesday Blue Hills Summer Conditioning Series starting on June 2nd. The series will run every Tuesday through September 15th. Difficulty level is on the more challenging end of moderate.
The hikes will be approximately 4 hours long and cover between 6-8 miles and range between 1,200-1,800’ of elevation gain. The pace will average around 2mph but will be faster on flat to low grade surfaces and a bit slower when ascending/descending steep inclines. The routes will include uneven terrain, rock scrambles and ledges in the Blue Hills.
You won’t need a lot of gear, but we recommend sturdy footwear, a backpack, non-cotton clothing suitable for hiking, full rain gear, at least 2 liters of water, lunch or snacks, bug spray, and sun block. Trekking poles are optional but recommended.
Participant count will be capped at 10 to help us maintain the pace and starting locations will vary each week as we explore different parts of the reservation.
These hikes are open to all who qualify and you do not have to be a member of AMC to participate. You do not have to commit to attend every hike to participate, but on-line registration is required for each weekly hike.
