Long Distance Walking

Walk 3 miles circle followed by brunch.

**\*\*DATE CHANGE FROM FEB 1 TO NEW DATE OF FEB 8\*\*** Celebrate Tu Bi'Shvat inside the (free) [U.S. Botanic Gardens!](https://www.usbg.gov/) This 4th annual visit tours through rooms such as the tropic, desert, & orchid-- oh my! The 'big room' even offers a catwalk for views above the canopy! You can follow the group as we gingerly gander, or blaze your own trail. After a guffaw in the gardens, its then a 5min walk to LUNCH @[Nat'l Muz. of the Amer. Indian (cafeteria chow-line/ multi- cuisine eatery)](https://maps.app.goo.gl/WRZ4R2GQE7TDbGuB7).

This is a substitute hike for the one originally scheduled for Indian Head Rail Trail on Saturday. The location was changed due to icy trail conditions at Indian Head and was rescheduled due to severe wind chills forecast for Saturday. The conditions for Sunday, Feb. 8 are better, though far from ideal. Winds will be from the northwest at about 15-25 miles per hour. The temperature will start out around 17 degrees Fahrenheit (about 2 degrees F wind chill) and gradually rise to about 22 degrees F (about 10 degrees F wind chill). Therefore, you must dress in multiple layers (avoiding pure cotton next to the skin), have winter head and ear coverings, and winter mittens or gloves. You’ll need to show these items to a leader before signing the waiver form and in order to participate. A winter scarf is also recommended to partially cover your face. The reason for layers is that the air between them provides extra insulation and you can remove some layers if needed to prevent overheating during exercise; the idea is to retain warmth with minimal sweating. Bring water and snacks as there will be no organized lunch stop. No pets please. We’ll meet at the Braddock Road Metro station by 10:00 AM Sunday. We urge you to take Metro rather than driving because finding a legal parking spot is difficult. We should meet in the vicinity of bus bay E just outside the Metro station. To simplify registration, we’re waiving collection of donations for this event. The route will be about 6 miles along city sidewalks and trails that have been sufficiently cleared of snow and ice, with very few exceptions. Two public restroom locations are available, one at about the 2.2-mile mark, and one at about the 4.9-mile mark, but there are a number of businesses along the way where you can use their restrooms if you buy something there. King Street Metro station is an optional bail-out point at 4.8 miles. The hike ends back at Braddock Road Metro. Paper handouts of the route will be available at the start, so please change your RSVP if you decide not to attend. Execution of a Sierra Club liability waiver is required at the start. You need not be a Sierra Club member to participate, but if you'd like to join, go to: [http://www.sierraclub.org/virginia](http://www.sierraclub.org/virginia) . Leaders: Gary Kosciusko, (703) 946-8111, and Vicky Hsu. Although open to all, this hike is part of a series of Saturday training hikes leading up to the [One Day Hike](https://www.meetup.com/sierrapotomac/events/304791832/) (ODH)—a 100 or 50 km hike along the C&O Canal—on May. 2, 2026. See SCPRO’s [Meetup page](https://www.meetup.com/sierrapotomac/) for other training hikes as they are posted.

Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/WashingtonAreaRoadskaters/events Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/weareskatedc/ We hope to see you soon!

We meet on Sundays at 8 a.m. for training runs on some of DC's best trails, including Rock Creek Park and the surrounding area. We typically meet at either Peirce Mill in Rock Creek Park, or Roosevelt Island, depending on the route. Details of the weekly schedule can be found here: https://new.vhtrc.org/runs/sip We hope you can join us for a run! All paces and levels of trail experience are welcome for these runs, which range in distance from 6 to 9 miles.

Join us at 11:30 a.m. for a meditation class led by Khenpo Karze, followed by a public talk and Q&A. The meditation focus varies from class to class. We are currently learning how to meditate on the Four Immeasurables: loving-kindness, compassion, sympathetic joy, and equanimity. The class begins with 30 minutes of meditation instruction, followed by 5-10 minutes of meditation practice, and then continues with discussion and Q&A. Each session concludes with a brief Chenrezig practice in which we recite Om Mani Padme Hung (a prayer of compassion), and a dedication prayer that our efforts benefit all beings. This class offers a strong foundation in meditation, helping cultivate inner peace and compassion amidst busy lives. All are welcome! This program is open to anyone with an interest in Buddhism and you can come to all or any part of the program. Families are welcome. There is no fee, but donations are encouraged. Join us! Class is offered IN-PERSON in our Prayer Room and ONLINE on [Facebook Live](https://www.facebook.com/KPCBuddhistTemple/) and [YouTube Live](https://www.youtube.com/@KunzangPalyulCholing/streams). You can also watch online here: https://www.tara.org/kpc-maryland-events-calendar/ About the teacher: Khenpo Tenzin Karze graduated from Ngagyur Nyingma Institute’s intensive Buddhist graduate course in 2006, and was awarded the degree of Khenpo, equivalent to a PhD in Buddhist Philosophy, in 2011. He has received teachings and empowerments from many great Nyingma masters, and taught extensively in various Palyul temples in Nepal, India, Europe and Taiwan. This is his first time in the USA. We are delighted that Khenpo is now in residence at KPC and will be providing traditional Dharma instruction to help us deepen our practice of wisdom and compassion.

***\*\*\* Due to the icy conditions and the Extreme Cold Warning, we have decided to cancel the hike \*\*\**** RESERVATIONS Wanderbirds Hiking Club is a 501(c)(7) non-profit, and the public is invited on all hiking trips. Reservations are accepted as late as Saturday but reserving as early in the week as possible helps ensure your spot and prevent cancellation of the hike due to low sign-ups. RSVP through Meetup and pay through PayPal. Please be sure your RSVP gives your full name and phone number and where you'll be boarding the bus. FIRST-TIME HIKERS If you're a first-time hiker with us, please notify the leaders in advance so they can make sure you have the info you need. Hikers must be able to keep a 2-mph pace. New hikers are required to first complete a moderate hike. **Liability Waiver:** Many of our hikes take place in remote wilderness areas where cell phone service is not available. Any person participating in any Club activity is responsible for their own safety, health and welfare, and must assume all risks and liabilities related to all Club activities. The Club, its hike leaders, hike sweeps, officers, and other representatives are not liable for any injuries, losses, or damage to persons, children, pets, and/or property, arising from any trips or activities of the Club.

CANCELLATION POLICY To cancel and receive a full bus hike refund, less a $5 processing fee, you must change your RSVP to "No" on Meetup **before NOON on the Friday** before the hike. If you change your RSVP after noon on the Friday before the hike, no refunds will be issued.

COVID PRECAUTIONS Anyone experiencing symptoms of upper respiratory illness should not attend the event. MORE DETAILS -- [SEE THE FAQS ON OUR WEBSITE](http://www.wanderbirds.org/faq.html)

*You must read the following NVHC Sign-in Sheet Statement/Liability Disclaimer, [https://nvhc.com/signin.pdf](https://nvhc.com/signin.pdf) and then answer the question that you will see when you RSVP with "I accept" to be permitted on the hike.* Despite weather in the low 20s on Sunday, it's just TOO DROP-DEAD STUNNINGLY BEAUTIFUL to miss hiking in the snow. Especially since snow seldom hangs around so long in DC. We'll hike 6ish miles on the flat (but still slippery, snow-covered, and risky) C&O Canal Towpath from the Carderock Recreation Area to just past Great Falls Tavern. We'll hike at a moderate 3 mph pace. (Slower in some areas if necessary.) **Please do NOT attend if you can't safely and happily keep up with the group since the weather and towpath conditions are special challenges.** We'll stop along the way for selfies by the frozen canal and the partially frozen Potomac River. **MEET:** Carderock Recreation Area (First available parking outside the Beltway for the C&O Canal) 11:30 am. GPS: 38.976127, -77.205495 Meet by the closed bathroom building in the northernmost parking lot. Our end time is 3 pm. We'll likely finish earlier but the end time depends on how many stops we want to make and how long we dawdle at the Great Falls Tavern and elsewhere. We'll also walk out on Olmstead Island for a view of Great Falls if conditions permit. **BRING:** **MANDATORY ICE CLEATS** MUST BE WORN AND OTHER WINTER CLOTHING IS ALSO REQUIRED ON YOUR BODY AND/OR IN YOUR BACKPACK due to the temperature. THIS IS ALSO REQUIRED: water, two pairs of warm gloves, hat, scarf (or balaclava or gaiter), warm shoes (insulated and/or Gore-Tex or similar), one to two pairs of wool (or other) warm socks, and two pairs of pants or one pair of very warm pants. Layered jackets are also recommended and hand/toe warmers are HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. **PLEASE READ. YOU \*WILL\* BE GRADED ON THIS: ;)** 1\. Adults only\. 2\. No pets\, unless your pet can self\-propel on snowshoes or cross country skis\. **WEATHER:** **FRIGID!** The National Weather Service predicts that it will be partly sunny and 23 (in the shade -- but we'll be in the sun a lot). The winds could reach around 17 mph with higher gusts. Most of the time we will be sheltered from a lot of the wind -- BUT THERE COULD BE FALLING BRANCHES so we have to be watchful and extra careful during our hike. (I scouted half of it Saturday and it didn't feel too bad.) https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=39.026619&lon=-77.203926 [https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=39.026619&lon=-77.203926](https://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?lat=39.026619&lon=-77.203926) The canal and the towpath are completely covered with snow and ice. While it's beautiful, even with ice cleats, you could slip and/or your feet could hit a pocket under the snow. Please only attend if you can safely handle all those conditions. **RESTROOMS:** Porta potties at the start and middle. Restrooms at Great Falls Tavern. **C&O CANAL CONDITIONS:** [https://www.nps.gov/choh/planyourvisit/conditions.htm](https://www.nps.gov/choh/planyourvisit/conditions.htm) **C&O CANAL MAP:** [https://www.nps.gov/choh/planyourvisit/upload/Great-Falls-Hiking-Map.pdf](https://www.nps.gov/choh/planyourvisit/upload/Great-Falls-Hiking-Map.pdf)

**Join us in Falls Church for conversations that go beyond small talk.** Higher Grounds – Falls Church is where this growing network of gatherings began: a space for thoughtful, authentic dialogue about what matters most. Whether we’re exploring the nature of happiness, the challenges and possibilities of midlife, spirituality, culture, capitalism, parenting, or the role of art and travel in a meaningful life, every conversation is shaped by the people in the room. There’s no set leader or rigid agenda—just a shared commitment to listen as much as we speak. We start with brief introductions focused on what makes you *you* (not your LinkedIn bio), then dive straight into whatever is on people’s minds. The direction of each meetup emerges organically, making every event unique. MANDATORY: PLEASE REVIEW OUR COMMUNITY GUIDELINES IN THE GROUP DESCRIPTION. Everyone is expected to engage in respectful conversations and listen deeply as well as share. We have a zero tolerance policy of sexual harassment and hate speech. Come ready to share, reflect, and connect with others in Falls Church who are also seeking deeper conversations. **Suggested Questions: Life Stages & Transitions** 1.

[The Board Walks](http://www.theboardwalks.com/) are for curious people who love deep conversations. If that sounds like you, **bring a thoughtful topic** and join us for a 5-mile walk (10,000+ steps!). **HOW IT WORKS** **Step 1: Bring a topic** Before you arrive, think of **one** topic you want to explore. A question. A thought that's been on your mind. An obsession you want to geek out on. This is your ticket to the event. **Step 2: Circle up & share** We gather in a circle. Your friendly walk host gives a speech to set the tone. Everyone shares: your name, what you're grateful for, and your topic. That's it. 60 seconds. **Step 3: Walk, talk & float** We walk 5 miles. You naturally drift into conversation with 2-3 people at a time, pulled by topics that spark your curiosity. When you're ready to move on, just say: "I'm going to float!" **Step 4: Feel more alive** Two hours flies by. You're back where you started — but you feel different. More alive. More energized. More connected to yourself and others. That's why regulars join 20+ times. *For more details, read our [Orientation Guide.](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation)* **HOW TO BRING A GREAT TOPIC** A great topic = something you're genuinely curious about. Recent topics include: * "What are you passionate about right now?" * "What makes a good friend?" * "What's a belief you used to hold that you've completely changed?" * "How do you want to be remembered?" * "What would you do if money wasn't a factor?" Think of your topic like the dish you're bringing to our conversational potluck. If everyone brings an A+ dish (i.e. energizing, uplifting, expansive), we'll all walk away feeling lighter and brighter. **WHAT TO EXPECT** This isn't a fitness event with casual chitchat. It's a walking think tank where we explore life's big questions together, beyond small talk. *If you're looking for light banter or a standard networking event, this probably isn't the right fit.* But if you crave depth, genuine connection, and conversations that make you feel alive? You'll love it here. **FAQ** * Wear casual athletic attire and sneakers. It's a long walk! * We have multiple first-timers at each event. We work hard to create a welcoming, inclusive, clique-free space. * We welcome people of **all** ages, backgrounds, and industries who align with the [intention](https://www.theboardwalks.com/ground-rules) of this space. * Rain or shine, we've been out here nearly every week since July 2022. If the event is cancelled, we'll let you know. * Dogs, babies in strollers, parents, and friends are welcome — please text/email them the event link so they can RSVP and prepare a topic! **LOGISTICS** * If you'll arrive over 10 minutes late, we suggest skipping the event. It's hard to find us once we start walking, and your host can't answer messages during the event. * This walk is designed for everyone to *move together at the same steady pace* (about 20 min/mile). This format works best when the whole group moves in unison. If you have mobility limitations, we kindly encourage you to find an event better suited to your needs. * Read our [Orientation Guide](https://www.theboardwalks.com/orientation) for full details. * If you enjoy the event, send **[this](http://www.theboardwalks.com/)** to a friend or sign up for our **[newsletter](https://theboardwalks.beehiiv.com/)**. We're in multiple cities with more on the way. 🤠👋 **IF YOU WANT TO GO DEEPER...** [The Board](https://stan.store/ellebeecher/p/the-board) is the next step: a high-trust collective for renaissance people devoted to creating, connecting, and building lives that light us up. * This is a global HQ for people who crave big talk, deep connection, and dream collaborations with people across industries.

Dale Gnidovec, Curator of the Orton Hall Museum of Geology at The Ohio State University, will be presenting a program he has wanted to share with us for a long time: Plate Tectonics. His description of his program: Continents on the move - Nothing in Earth history makes sense without moving continents - it tells us why mountains, volcanoes, minerals, and fossils are where they are. This talk examines the evidence for continental drift, why it was disbelieved, and explains how the more-encompassing theory of plate tectonics was developed and eventually proven. Dale is an energetic, incredibly knowledgeable, and very entertaining speaker and this will be another wonderful program by Dale. Hope to see you there! Food and drinks will be provided at the event. Feel free to show up a little bit early to hang out and talk. Going forward our meetings will be hybrid.
