Old Rag Mountain Hike

June 23, 2007 2:47 pm

Picture 39.pngA reminder: one week from today, we are going to hike Old Rag. This is a beautiful, scenic, and very challenging hike, a ton of fun! Relevant details:

  • RIDES. We are not providing or arranging rides. You are on your own for getting there and getting home. If you are driving and want to caravan out with others so you don’t get lost, meet at the building, ready to roll by 8am. But have your ride arranged before you get there!
  • MONEY. Each vehicle will need $15 cash to park. Please offer a few bills to the driver of your vehicle to help cover gas.
  • CONTACT. Tony Rossell is running this. If you need to get in touch with him, call his cell phone or his home phone, both of which were on the flier we passed out at the last five15 meeting.
  • HOME. We should be home around dinner time, Lord willing.
  • WEATHER. Current 10-Day forecast is 88 and cloudy, but it’s weather: anything could happen. We won’t hike in the rain. Check back here for updates.

What to bring:

  • A backpack. Fill it with lunch and lots of water.
  • Hiking boots or a sturdy pair of sneaks. If you wear flips or sandals, you will regret it.
  • Don’t forget lots of water.
  • Modest clothes. Thanks for serving.
  • Don’t forget lots of water.
  • Camera. Great views + friends = cheesy photo ops.
  • Don’t forget lots of water.

If you would like to learn more, check out this Old Rag website.

Finally, and VERY IMPORTANT! If you are planning on coming to this hike (or any other five15 event, like Six Flags or the Retreat), you’ll need to fill out a Participation Agreement. We’ve been doing these for years, we just need you to fill out a new one each year. You can print it off and turn it in on Sunday or bring it with you next Saturday.

Just to reiterate:

Don’t forget lots of water.

I’m not sure about something. So do you mean we should bring water?

Care to comment?
