OUTINGS
The scheduled and tentatively planned outings of the Hundred Peaks Section are below.
OUTINGS ARE FUN
Outings are just plain fun. They give you a chance to explore
and enjoy our mountains with friends who share your interests. In fact,
one of the main purposes of our outings is to deepen our appreciation of
and support for protecting the Los Angeles area mountains.
Outings vary
in difficulty and pace, which means anyone from novices to trail runners can
find trips that fit their conditioning. Most hikes are for people only, but
well-behaved dogs are welcome on hikes so designated.
And no, you don't need to be a member of the Sierra Club.
WHAT TO BRING
Yourself. Unless otherwise specified, sturdy shoes and outdoor clothing,
layers to cope with changing weather, food and water, a first aid kit,
a hat!, sunscreen. A sense of wonder, a sense of adventure, a sense of humor...
LIABILITY
Like all organizations, the Sierra Club is sensitive to
liability issues arising from our activities. Three specific matters must
be addressed:
(1) In the interests of facilitating the logistics of some outings, it is customary that participants make voluntary carpooling arrangements. The Sierra Club does not have insurance for carpooling arrangements and assumes no liability for them. Carpooling, ride sharing or anything similar is strictly a private arrangement among participants. Participants assume the risks associated with this travel.
(2) All participants on Sierra Club outings are required to sign a standard
liability waiver. If you would like to read the Liability Waiver before you
choose to participate on an outing, please go to:
http://www.sierraclub.org/outings/chapter/forms/
or contact the Outings Department at (415) 977-5528 for a printed version.
(3) Unless otherwise stated, there is no charge or fee to participate in our outings. But a disclaimer: CST 2087766-40. Registration as a seller of travel does not constitute approval by the State of California.
