THIS IS A DOG-PARTICIPANT HIKE. This event is NOT for those who are uncomfortable with the antics of fun-loving dogs. Dogs (and Masters) required to be ‘on-leash' in DuPont. Exception for swimmers. Small (lap)dogs may carpool. Large dogs will drive themselves.
All hikes are at your own risk. You are responsible for your OWN safety and adequate equipment.
