Join us on this lovely traverse of 7 summits of the Belknap Range (which gets you more than halfway to the Belknap Range patch). Hopefully, we'll see some amazing fall colors throughout the hike.
NOTE: We are prioritizing current MIT students for this trip. Until Thursday at 11:59pm, sign-ups will only be open to current MIT students, and after that, we'll open it up to the broader MITOC community.
Prerequisites: This is a moderate difficulty hike. We'll be hiking about 11 mi with 3,000 ft of elevation gain. To join this trip, you should have prior hiking experience. Have you done a hike with ≥ 8 miles of distance and ≥ 2000 ft of elevation in the past year? If so, great, go ahead and sign up! And if not, but you want to join this trip, please email Anish so we can make sure that this trip will be a good fit for you.
Logistics: We'll have a 15-minute pre-trip meeting on Thursday at 8:00pm over Zoom; if you can't make that, you can email Anish.
