If you have previously completed the Intermediate Hiking for Fitness Program or can hike 7.5 miles with at least 1,500ft of elevation, this hike may be right for you. This hike will take place at Sugarloaf’s McCormick Addition, off the Los Alamos Rd entrance to Hood Mountain Regional Park. From the Los Alamos parking lot, we will start out on Hood Mtn Rd and cross into Sugarloaf at Salt Creek, up Quercus, Headwaters, and Maple Glen trails to the park boundary. On the way back, we’ll return on a game trail and through the Grandmother Oak Trail before backtracking back to the parking lot.
We strongly recommend completion of the shorter version of the Bald Mt. hike (in and out via Bald Mountain Trail) as a pre-requisite.
This event is free but requires RSVP. Wear appropriate footwear for rocky/slippery trails and multiple layers. Bring your lunch, at least two quarts of water, and hiking poles if you use them. Please note there is no water, bathroom, or cell phone access during this outing. Heavy rains cancel. The Regional Park parking fee applies.
