SUMMARY:Mt Lipsett - Relaxed Pace - Experienced Hikers - LATE START!
DESCRIPTION:Slow and Steady Hikers\nI have recently hiked Mount Lipsett for the first time and it was awesome! There are other organizers posting Lipsett\, but with a very early start time\, so it has been requested that I lead a “later version”. I am not a morning person\, and cannot physically do it. So\, this hike will be a little different. We will not have advantage of the cool morning and the hike may run late. Please be prepared for hot weather\, bring lightweight\, sun blocking clothes\, a hat\, and at least 3L of water\, electrolytes\, suncreen\, and a headlamp with fresh batteries\, just in case. You will need a good breakfast\, good lunch\, and lots of high energy\, quick snacks to eat along the way. A water bladder with a back up water bottle\, is recommended\, so you can drink water without stopping all the time. \nIf the sun is very hot\, we will take a relaxed break (siesta) in the shade during the hottest part of the day. Drinking water is essential. A wet bandana around your neck is also helpful. We will get back late. Do not make evening plans. We will stop for supper along the way back. If the weather is uncooperative\, we will reschedule. \nThe trail is 14.5km long and has 730m elevation gain. \nWe meet at the Mount Lipsett trailhead\, see map\, at 9:15am\, to be ready to hike at 9:30am sharp. This will be a long day\, please don’t make evening plans. \nOn my hikes\, we take 8-12 experienced hikers. We do not run ahead or leave people behind. We are out to enjoy nature together\, get to know each other better\, and keep each other safe. If you run ahead of the group\, we will feed you to the bears. \nThat being said\, this hike is for experienced hikers who want to hike at a relaxed pace. To be accepted on this hike\, YOU MUST HAVE HIKED WITH ME BEFORE. No beginners\, no guests\, no children. If you have not hiked with me before\, please join my monthly\, evening\, Glenbow Ranch hikes so we can get to know each other before going yo the mountains. The next two are posted for Thursday\, July 30th\, and Thursday\, August 27th. You choose to make your own carpooling plans once you are accepted on the hike. Recommended $25 gas fee. I recommend meeting at Shouldice Park and Ride at 7:00am or Petro Canada at hwy 22 and 1 at 7:15am. I can take 3 (max 4) passengers from Petro\, on the north end of the gravel road\, on the hwy 22 side. Drivers must have a Kananaskis Park Pass. \nBear spray and cameras recommended. Lunch\, snacks\, 2-3 litres of water plus electrolytes\, poles\, changes of clothes\, medications\, waterproof hiking boots\, gaiters\, required. Water purification tablets\, a headlamp with new batteries\, first aid kit\, tensor bandage\, and emergency silver blanket are recommended in case things don’t go to plan. Extra socks and plastic bags for your boots are also useful. A water bladder you can drink while you hike\, plus a backup water bottle is ideal. \nPlease read the slow and steady waiver and code of conduct in advance. You will sign in agreeing to the conditions of the waiver at the trailhead and leave an emergency contact name and number. You agree to follow slow and steady policies\, listen to the organizer\, treat everyone with respect\, do your own research on the hikes\, come prepared\, and recognize that your organizers are volunteers who put in a lot of their own time to plan and lead these hikes for you.
