Training Hike #1

Location: Crafton Hills College in Yucaipa. Meet in Parking Lot H
When: Saturday, March 15th
Time: Meet between 7:30-8:00 am. Start Hiking promptly at 8:00 am
Duration: 3-4 hours. We should be driving away by 12:15.
What you need: Walking/Hiking shoes. A backpack. Water. Food/snacks if you want. You should probably bring some bug repellant in your pack also. It's the time of year where if the weather is nice, the bugs could be out....and bugging. This is an exposed trail so bring sunscreen, and use it! (unless it's cloudy, then bring sunscreen, just don't use it!)
What you need to know: This will basically be a walk on a dirt road behind Crafton Hills College. We will go no matter the weather. This is a safe walk, no danger of flash floods or anything like that, so even if it's raining, we'll put on the ponchos or use umbrellas and get in the training. The distance will be 4-5 miles. 2-2.5 miles one way.
Other Information: If you're an experienced hiker, don't skip this just because it's easy and on a road. Weight your pack down and get to walkin'.
Directions Crafton Hills College, 11711 Sand Canyon Rd., Yucaipa, CA
