We are hiking on an actual trail with hills! Yes, right here in Houston! This is not a paved path! Meeting time is 12:15pm. We'll leave promptly at 12:30pm.
What to bring:
- Water! Stay hydrated. It is also good practice to hydrate before your activity
- Bug Spray
- Wear long pants
- Wear sturdy shoes that are okay to get muddy
After the hike, we’ll grab something to eat at Canyon Creek!
Dog-Friendly for friendly dogs: Please bring plenty of water for your dog and poop bags!
What happens if it is raining: We do not cancel before the day of the event and then we only cancel if it's dangerous. If it is raining a little, we will still go but we will alter the route. Hiking on wet trails cause erosion and is expensive to fix. Trails are closed after heavy rains. We will follow the rules for open / closed trails.
Leave No Trace: Please bring a reusable bottle and Put any empty bottles or trash in the garbage cans.
Parking: There is a large parking lot at the running center and parking along the street. Since this hike is right after the fitness fair, it might be a little crowded but you should still find a spot. Allow a few extra minutes to find the group.
How to find the Group: Look for the HTXoutdoors and BCO signs. We'll be in grassy area behind the center so we're not in the way of the cars.
