Sheep River Trail- the long version + Potluck BBQ - T2 SLOW

PLEASE READ ALL DESCRIPTION BEFORE SIGNING UP!!!

This hike will be limited to a total of 12 hikers. You will not be considered for this hike if you have not attended one of my urban walks or hiked with me previously.

How Do I Know This Hike Is For Me?
Do you walk slow but REALLY want to hike? Do you like Kodak moments, checking out the flowers and enjoying the journey? You will fit right in. Please do NOT attend expecting to be way ahead of the group if we are too slow for you. That is not my style..

If you are ill or do not feel in any way well please DO NOT attend this event. You will be sent home.

It is up to you to watch for updates and any changes to this event

Trip Description:
From the trailhead we will follow the Sheep River Trail and explore out past the First Bridge over the river. Elevation is minimal and there is shade. Views are amazing.

We will likely travel 10-14 km and there will be minimal elevation.
