Day trips are usually on Sunday's. Departure is usually between 8 & 9 a.m. with return times between 4 & 6 p.m. on the average. Carpools depart from the parking lot across from Laidley field near the Capitol. These hikes are designed for the integration of 2 basic components, fitness and recreation. Though the pace is not quite as intense as the Wednesday hikes, the duration is usually longer, so stamina is important. Both the day trips and over-night camping trips range between 7-12 mile hikes. We try to design the hikes to encompass the locale's most note-worthy points of interest, i.e. waterfalls, natural anomalies, etc.
Essentials: *Backpack/WITHOUT frame (or some facsimile
thereof) *Good Shoes (see shoe info under Wed
hikes)
*Rain poncho (for inclement
weather)
*Water/liquids
*Food - You will need to
bring:
Lunch and snacks. Lunch will be carried on the hike and eaten on the trail so plan accordingly. Optional: *Water shoes (we like to take advantage of the bodies of water, rivers, and lakes etc.. on the hikes. So if you might be
interested water shoes are a good idea. Sometimes we take trails that cross through small rivers and streams so again the shoes are
handy.)
*Towel (if you plan to take advantage of the water) *Extra pair
of dry socks (just in case you accidentally take advantage of the
water!)
*Plastic zip bags (to keep dry things dry and wet things away from dry
things)
*Small plastic trash bags (for trash receptacle during the hike, i.e. lunch and snacks. You will of course not leave any trash behind. Whatever you bring into the woods you take with you when you leave.
