Is it a women-only hike? No, our hikes are inclusive, and everyone is welcome to join!
Is it beginner-friendly? Yes, the hike is suitable for beginners with some hiking experience.

This is not a race, and trust me we love staring at the flowers too.

How do we get to the location? We will coordinate a carpool, led by the guide, to the trailhead. If you hit Summit Lake you have gone too far.
