Fitness Hike- Bobcat Ridge

Weight (to be carried): Lite (5-10 lbs)

Pace: Quick (3.0-3.5 MPH)

Distance: Moderate (5-7 Miles)

Cost: $10 (Cash, please)

Bring:

Weather appropriate clothing, layers

Hiking boots or heavy tread trail runners (gaiters or traction system recommended when snowy or icy)

Backpack or weighted vest

Water (2-4 Liters)

Sunscreen

First Aid kit

Gallon size zip lock (for trash, if we make any or find any)

Other-anything else you may need to be prepared to be outside, on trail for a couple of hours.

What to Expect:

6:00 a.m. Meet @ Trailhead

We'll start with introductions and set intentions.

I'll lead an energizing breathing technique and then a dynamic warm-up, using mini-bands (I'll have a bunch, but bring them if you have some).

We'll hike to a designated turn-around, stop and admire the view.

Upon descending, I encourage taking silence in a reflective hike back to the trailhead parking lot.

We'll have an opportunity to share during a cool-down stretch.

Adults only, please. This hike is intended for fitness- the pace will be quick and breaks will be limited.

Dogs are NOT allowed at Bobcat Ridge Natural Area.
