Trips are normally three to four miles in length, at a leisurely pace.
Trips are always subject to change because of weather, conflicts of schedule, and the choice of the group. We do plan to walk in all kinds of weather, so please dress appropriately. From time to time, we will schedule lunch at a restaurant or a brown bag lunch. These are optional. We also try to carpool to save energy and to enjoy each other's company.
