HIKING TRAIL ETIQUETTE

Uphill hikers have right of way (unless catching their breath).
For safety reasons, hikers should step aside for bikers, runners and horses.
Shortcuts cause trail erosion; stay on main trail.
Leave no trace (wrappers and tissue on the trail a big NO!).
As a courtesy to hikers coming up from behind, step aside
Take dogs only on trails marked for them. Restrain them when passing other hikers. Clean up after them!

HIKE DIFFICULTY DEFINITIONS

EASY: Up to 500ft elevation and up to 6 miles
MODERATE: Between 500 and 1800 ft elevation and 6 to 10 miles
STRENUOUS: Over 1800ft elevation and 8 to 15 miles or longer
These are basic definitions. Things like rock scrambles and trail conditions might affect hike difficulty

HIKE GROUP SAFETY

To keep everyone safe, hikers must sign up for hikes. Hikers will be asked to:

Describe their recent hike activity
Mention any medical conditions that might be problematic
Cancel with the hike leader if they won't be attending

Once on the trail, hikers will be expected to:

Follow the hike leader's and sweep's instructions
Apprise the leader if they are having difficulty
Accept an escort to return to the trailhead if they can't keep up with the group
