Itinerary:

What is a Half-And-Half? A half-and-half is a hike in which we park in the middle of the route and do an out-and- back one way, then an out-and-back the other way. Attendees can do just the first half if they wish, or they can stay for the whole thing (both halves). The first "half" will be slower paced and easier, and the second "half" will be a hills drill for those who want a little more of a workout. The hills are great for conditioning your calves for steeper climbs. I'm recovering from a bad chest infection so it will be a slower paced walk and I may just supervise the hills. or do one reallllly slow up and down.

Meet at 6:00 to depart promptly at 6:15.

First Half: Departing Snow Valley heading north, we will walk south through Rainbow Valley Park and Whitemud Ravine. This will be a slower pace hike.

Second Half: Depart again heading north under the bridge, where this will be a hills drill for those who want some more exercise.

This will be a slower-paced walk - beginners, slowpokes, backpack conditioners, and photographers welcome!

Dogs must be kept on leash at all times
