Beginner Backpack

Interested in trying out backpacking?  LAM/PEEC has organized an overnight backpack trip and we have gear (tents, backpacks, sleeping bags, etc.) to loan.  There will be a pre-meeting on Monday night July 29 at 5:30 to go over gear, discuss food and clothing, and answer questions.   The backpack will be on Saturday-Sunday August 3-4, starting from the Santa Fe Ski Basin.  We will hike 4.5 miles and camp at Puerto Nambe on Saturday night.  There are possible hikes from camp on Sunday morning, returning to Los Alamos on later on Sunday afternoon.  

Sign up for this event is thru the PEEC website (there is a cost to participate to cover gear loans):  https://peecnature.org/events/details/?id=55813
