Itinerary:

Hill and drills will be a series of hikes and information sessions desired to get us in shape and geared up for the up coming backpacking season. Each week or two I will set up a hike in the river valley area designed to put us though our paces, leading up to many weekends exploring in the Rockies. Sounds like fun hey…

This week we will be hitting the dirt in Gold bar so bring your pack if you want, and your boots. We will meet at Gold Bar parking lot at 6:00 SHARP!and leave right after that. Please insure you have good foot wear and are well hydrated. Everyone is welcome even if you are not interested in backpacking. Look for the girl in the big red ford truck.
