This hike is for intermediate and strong intermediate hikers. Advanced hikers are welcome, but note that the pace may be a bit more relaxed than my usual quick pace, although this will not be a slow hike. There are lots of hills and challenging terrain.
There will be no dropouts on this hike. If you can not hike the distance, please do not sign up for this hike.
