All participants must attend a mandatory pre-trip meeting the week of the trip. Registration closes on 10/17.

There is an option to place a $75 deposit at checkout – the remainder of the balance must be paid in person at Outdoor Pursuits before the trip’s departure.

ITINERARY:
Saturday: Drive to Wildcat Mountain, hike, make lunch/ dinner, and camp overnight.
