Is This Hike For You
Using the writeup, here's how to tell if a hike is for you.
1- In red print, I supply the mileage that you should have recently (last 3 weeks) hiked without being exhausted. THIS IS A KEY. Do not ignore this.
2- I give the length of the hike in time: 2-3 hours; 3.5-4.5 hours. Can you walk for the maximum hours in this type of terrain without much stopping?
3- I supply information about the terrain. City or alleyway hikes are usually flat and easier than hikes in the park. Parks usually have every type of terrain: hills, rocks, flat and level areas, etc. Hilly means lots of often steep ups and downs. Bushwhacking, going off trail, usually means more difficult.
The bottom line is that hikes are to be enjoyed, not endured. If you are not sure, go on an easier shorter hike before a longer park hike. And it's not fair to others in the group that we modify a hike because you overestimated your ability.
If you do go on a hike, it is your responsibility to keep up with the group and not fall behind.
