Hiking – Hike Ute Park and RRCOS

Colorado Springs, CO

This is the local field trip for those completing the Pikes Peak Group Intro to Desert Trekking and Canyoneering classroom session only.  We will hike a wet canyon in Ute Park and two dry to wet canyons in RRCOS.  We will spend time looking at things like terrain/route selection, scrambling and stemming skills, endurance, and emergency situation choices (camping, exiting mid canyon, water procurement, etc).  Further details will be provided in the class.
