Are you willing to take a turn hosting/choosing a route for a Wed AM hike? Can you read a map and get us from A to B? If so, feel free to sign up for this hike and be prepared to say what Wednesdays you can host.

All participants take turns hosting this Wed hike.

Hosts choose the route (map provided), and everyone helps with map reading and trailblazing ... yes! There might be some trailblazing, but normally we're just on trails.

This is the perfect opportunity for you if there's a trail you've always wanted to explore and need help with route finding. The group will help you with it.

For the whole month of March, we'll hiking in Conejo Open Space, Thousand Oaks.

Let's take advantage of this cool weather to hike in in the Conejo Valley while we can. Summer temps are often between 80-105 degrees.

No "no shows." Don't sign up if you've ever been a "no show" at any Meetup. Your RSVP will be changed to a "no."

Please, no guests. You must be signed up at Fun in the Sun Club Meetup, thereby agreeing to Meetup's Release of Liability (http://www.meetup.com/terms/). Don't show up without signing up here first. Thank you.

Trailblazing? No; these trails have been trodden before, but maybe not by us.

Exploratory? Yes, following the map and looking for the route.

Bushwacking? Probably not, because most trails are in good shape, but we never know!

Type of Hike: Leader's choice, anything possible.

Terrain: Single track, fire-road.

Start Time: Arrive EARLIER. It's a good idea to plan to be there at 8:15AM so if you get lost or there's traffic, you'll still be on time. We'll leave when everyone arrives and wait until 8:30AM at the latest. If you're lacing up your boots at 8:30AM, we'll be gone.

Estimated Stats: 7-10 miles, 1,300' - 2,500'. We'll finish before 12:30PM.

Pace: About 3.00 mph moving average, and 2.5mph overall average--sometimes considered a fast pace, but it's all relative. Participants stay behind the leader. No rushing ahead, no tigers or turtles.

Bring: The ten essentials. Trekking poles if you like using them.

Wear: Layers, hiking shoes/boots with lug soles.

Dogs: Leashed dogs okay if they can handle the stats and stay still while horses pass us. Please clean up after your dog.

Meeting Place: Will be sent to participants.

Leave nothing of value in your vehicle, at this or any other trailhead. http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/a/6/1/a/event_93942522.jpeg
