Whether you’re planning a day hike, an overnight backpacking trip, or a weekend campout, you’ll leave feeling confident, capable, and excited to get outdoors.
Alisa will share practical tips on the Rule of 3s, the 10 Essentials, emergency preparedness, food planning and packing, and how to get physically ready for your outing. Perfect for adventurers of all experience levels looking to build skills and enjoy the outdoors safely!
This event is free and open to the general public.
Join us for an evening hike on the Deer Creek Road. Our objective will be to reach a picturesque bird's-eye view of the high bridge over Mores Creek. If there is extra motivation and interest, we will also try to find an old homestead site.
This hike will be of easy to moderate difficulty on a utility road surface. Mileage will be about two miles, maybe more if we want to explore further.
We will meet at the Deer Creek Road Trailhead alongside Highway 21 at 6:00 pm. This trailhead is a large pullout on the left side of the highway, just before the high bridge. Allow yourself at least a half hour to make the commute from Boise. If you arrive late, walk up the trail to catch up.
See you there!
