Spring Hike Day 2023

May 7, 2023 @ 9:00 am - 3:00 pm

Join us for a wonderful spring day of hiking around SLC with your family and/or friends!

The cost for Family Hike Day is $25 for SLC Alumni Association Members and $30 for non-members.

($100/$120 for families of 4 or more)

A light breakfast is included.

All proceeds will benefit Surprise Lake Camp.

All hikers MUST register in advance (see form below).

Schedule

9:00am: Check-in begins/Light breakfast will be available
10:00am: SHARP: Hikes begin

Hike Choices:

Breakneck Overlook to Hudson Overlook:  Led by Whammy. This moderate hike has the glory of climbing Breakneck Ridge (this is the 4th peak of Breakneck) without actually climbing up the rock face.  We will take a scenic, walk in the woods through Cornish, climbing up the mountain towards this overlook, loop around to Hudson Overlook, and then come back down into camp.  Maximum hiking time is 5 hours, including time for lunch.  You must be able to walk 20 minutes up an incline without getting short of breath in order to choose this hike. 

Cornish Discovery:  Led by Jeff Berk. Explore our historic Northgate ruins.  Difficulty level ranges from rustic, unleveled roads to mild inclines. This is a great option for families with children. Maximum hiking time is 3 hours, including time for lunch.
