Designed specifically for seniors wanting to get into walking in the woods and hiking and having no previous experience or experience “in the good ole days”. The presentation / discussion is facilitated by a senior who is a Master Guide with 50 years and 4,000+ miles hiking experience. It includes comprehensive information including us as seniors, how trails work, trail marking, how our thinking affects trekking, where and how to start in the area, hiking gear, clothing, guides, maps, basic compass use, being on the trail, weather, winter / snowshoeing, and when things go wrong. Compasses provided (or bring your own) for quick basic outdoor portion.
