Training
This hike will provide a challenge to all for packing and endurance, as it is a flow-through hike. That means everything is on our back for the 5 day hike. We'll be organizing hikes throughout our 2014-2015 session to build up our physical and mental strength. Participation will be mandatory for those going on the adventure.
