Guidelines for Hiking With The Trails Club
The Trails Club of Rossmoor is composed of people who want to hike, not as individuals, but with a group for fun, safety, and camaraderie. We hike together and care for each other on the trail.
Each group has a leader and a sweep.
The Leader will periodically stop for water breaks, rest, and to close the gap between hikers as necessary.
The Leader will stop at all intersections to insure everyone stays on the correct trail.
Anyone needing a "bush break" is to inform the sweep, who will wait for them to return to the group.
All hikers will stay within visual and audible distance of the hiker in front and behind them.
Any hiker needing to return to the trailhead will be accompanied by at least one other hiker.
Bringing a cell phone on the hike is recommended.
Two-way radios are available. Harriet Schwartz has them ready for use. Call her at 201-563-6019 to make arrangements in advance of any hike.
Happy Trails!
