Note: This trip is only open to members who regularly attend our events and have experience with multi-day pack backing hiking trips.
Please RSVP to this walk and we will attempt to confirm the final list by mid December.
Please do not RSVP to any Eastern Hiking & Adventure event unless you are fully committed to attending. It is your responsibility to check the date, distance, and difficulty of the walk before RSVPing. Members who frequently withdraw at the last minute, fail to show up, arrive without being on the "going" list, or behave disrespectfully towards leaders or fellow members will be asked to leave the walk and may be removed from the group. All leaders are unpaid volunteers who invest a great deal of their own time to plan and research each walk. Their efforts deserve respect and consideration. Organisers do their best to minimise waitlists where possible, and priority will be given to reliable members who attend regularly and contribute positively to the group experience.
Fitness Level:
You need to be in good physical condition and have experience with multi-day back packing hikes.
