Welcome to Rise & Grind – the CMC Boulder Group’s morning hiking and coffee series. Our objective is to start our day off right with some exercise and good company. Afterward there will be an optional stop for coffee, symbolizing a fresh start and the energy needed to conquer the day.
Our hike will take us up the Mnt Sanitas Trail, down the East Ridge Trail and back via the Sanitas Valley Trail. This is a 3.2 mile loop and is expected to take two hours.
Please note, while modest distance, this is a challenging hike due to the steep climb and rocky, switchback-free trail. This is a before-work hike for some participants, so it’s important that we maintain our pace and finish promptly so folks can get to work on time. Please know your own abilities and be considerate of the rest of the group when you sign up.
Meet at 6:30am, for a 6:35 start. Details and directions in pre-trip email.
