Note: This is an "EXPLORATORY" trip. This means that there are parts of this trip, or perhaps the whole trip, that is new to your Trip Leader(s). However, they are confident that this will not be an issue.
This note is here so that you can make an informed decision. When a Trip Leader isn't personally familiar with a trip, there is an increased chance of things not going as planned and you need to be prepared. The Trip Leader may have additional details in the itinerary.

Itinerary:

Let's go explore West Palisades. This hike is listed as exploratory because I don't know these trails well at all, so we will look at the maps at different intersections and figure out where to go as we go along.

The terrain at West Palisades is rooty and rocky and rugged, with some decent elevation changes, so be prepared for that. Our pace will be moderate or slightly faster, and we will hike about 5 miles.

We will meet in front of the bathrooms. Please arrive about 10 minutes early for socializing and introductions.

This area, like all CRNRA units, requires a $5 daily parking fee unless you have an annual pass.

Good hiking shoes
