Description

Are you interested in getting out on the trails in Los Alamos, but hesitant to begin exploring on your own?  Want to know more about Los Alamos trails and what lives and grows on them, about the rocks that make our canyons and mesas so beautiful, and about the history of our area?  Join Hiking Los Alamos 101 to dip your toes into all the fascinating hiking, biology, geology and history of our local trail system.  Local Subject Matter Experts will take you on a hike of 2 miles or less and share with you their knowledge of the area. 

This first session will take place in the PEEC classroom, where Craig Martin will go over safety & comfort on the trail. He will also teach map-reading skills. This is a great opportunity for adults, especially those new to the area, to get to know the wonderful network of trails that Los Alamos has to offer.

The cost is $20 for ALL 4 classes, which includes a Sky Terrain map of Santa Fe, Bandelier, & Los Alamos & a 50 Hikes booklet. Please register in advance, as space is limited to 25 for each session. Drop-ins are welcome to any class for $8, if the maximum attendee limit has not been reached.
