OUTCOMES:

The goal of this trip is to challenge ourselves on some hilly terrain over a moderate distance. Also… to have fun and get outside!

Lapham Peak’s glaciated topography was formed 10,000 years ago during the last ice age. It provides excellent hiking and backpacking.

WHAT TO BRING: 

Please wear supportive shoes/boots with a good outsole that you are comfortable walking up and down trails in. 

Bring your own water, food (we will eat lunch in the park), and sun protection. 

 

Right now, space is limited because there are no large fleet vehicles available. We can increase the number of participants if we can find additional drivers or if a larger vehicle becomes available. Please reach out if you’re interested in driving.
