New Member Information Sheet

Character of Rambler hikes:

Rambler hikes are strenuous and sometimes have many ups and downs. They often involve bushwhacking (off-trail hiking) and are commonly 14 to 18 miles long. Longer and / or more strenuous hikes are indicated in the schedule by a star. Saturday city hikes have early drop out points and can be shorter. Many hikes follow unusual routes. Most hikes are new hikes and it will be 4 to 5 years before a hike will be repeated. For "cars needed" hikes, cars are appreciated, and sometimes not all hikers can be accommodated.
