What the trip looks like
- Morning
Meet at the trailhead
Coffee, intros, a pronoun round, and a real briefing — not just a safety talk.

On the mountain
We hike at the group's pace, with a sweep leader at the back. Snack stops are mandatory.

Wind-down
Drinks and food at a local spot we love. Carpool home or stay on for dinner with new friends.
