During The Trip or Hike

The group generally breaks up into a couple of smaller groups depending on hiking speed.

About 15-20 minutes after the strong starters leave the trailhead, they should stop for a breather and let the rest of the group catch up. Often the Hike Coordinator will suggest splitting into two groups (faster and slower paced) and agree to a lunch destination.

If you choose the wrong group and feel you must change, please tell the Hike Coordinator. The coordinator will be keeping a close count of everyone throughout the hike.

Please do not complain about the first group going too fast. This probably indicates that you should be with the slower group.

C.O.R.E. will not sanction any hike with fewer than 4 people. In the event of an emergency, two people can go for help while the third person remains with the hiker in difficulty.

Always Wait At Trail Junctions!

When you return to the trailhead, wait at the car or leave a message if you depart early so the Hike Coordinator knows every hiker is back safely.

Respect The Environment ! 

Pack out all garbage ­ leave no orange or banana peels, or anything else ­ and don't feed the ground squirrels, whiskey jacks or other wildlife. 

Leave No Trace !
