Important notes about the field trip. Have student eat a good breakfast and take in lots of fluids. There is no shelter on this trip other than the outhouses at the beginning and end of the hike. Also, there is no potable (suitable for drinking) water available. Students will be outdoors the entire time (about 4 hours) on high, wind swept plains and will hike a minimum of 4.3 miles on designated trails. There are no outhouses along the trail. Students must bring a backpack large enough to carry their own discarded layers of clothing, field guide and pencil, trail snacks and two (or three) containers of water. Other suggested gear: sunscreen, handkerchief, hat, sunglasses, windbreaker, hand sanitizer or wipes, binoculars, gloves and camera. It's important to dress your student in layers in anticipation of temperature fluctuations (i.e., don't put them in a t-shirt and ski jacket). |
