Plan to meet at the CULC turnaround by Tech Green at 8:30am and leave by no later than 8:40am. We'll be back around approximately 12:30pm.

Plan to wear good work shoes/hiking boots and clothes you don't mind getting dirty (bonus points for long-sleeved pants and shirts to ward off any poison ivy!). Bring a water bottle, sunscreen, some bug spray, and then a pair work gloves if you have them.

COVID Policy - We ask that you bring a mask with you for the ride over as well as in case it is required by our host.
