Description

Beginners & Backpackers Hikes are designed for new hikers (or those just getting back into it) and backpackers who want to start “practicing” with partially loaded packs.  These hikes will be at a slower pace, with lots of breaks and generally easy terrain, building up to harder hikes as the season progresses.  If your a new hiker, bring your 10 essentials.  If your a backpacker, bring a partially loaded pack 15 to 20 lbs. (or more) to start.  Please comment if you are a beginner or a backpacker.

This will be an EXPLORATORY hike in Kenna Cartwright as I do not know the trails. Anton has offered to take us through a route he has done that would be good practice for the Beginners and Backpackers group.  It should be approx 7 to 9 km, and there will be elevation gain.

Meet at 5:30 at the Kenna Cartwright parking area above Dufferine Elementary on Hillside Drive. Bring water, snack and dress for the weather.

Please comment if you are bringing your dog. 4 dogs maximum, 1 per member.
