Strenuous Some climbing, usually rugged, generally 9 miles or more. Moderate Some climbing and rugged walking, but less than 9 miles. Easy Generally easy, fairly level trails, slower pace, 6 to 8 miles. Is that all we do? No. Occasionally the club will host other outdoor activities. In the past we have done trail clearing, orienteering, bushwhacking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, camping, backpacking, swimming, canoeing and rafting. What to bring: Footwear is very important. We strongly recommend hiking boots with non-slip soles. New footwear should be broken-in before being used on a hike. Bring water, a trail lunch, but please no food that requires cooking.
