Hiking.  Exercise for people who hate exercise. Am I right?!

Never been before??

No worries!  More than half of the people going have never been before and many people show up by themselves.  So when you show up, if everyone looks like they have known each other for years…. Don’t worry. They likely just met.  Look for the event leader and then them know it’s your first time and we’ll make sure to take care of you! 😀
