Itinerary:

Please don't register for this hike if you have been sick in the last 7 days. Having checked out Humpty's Hill and Jill's Hill in the past I'd like to see what the view at the top of Jack's Hill is like ;-) From there we will take the Mesa Traverse trail across the base of Mesa Butte before climbing the steep trail to the top. Back down to the junction we will then do the up and down on the Curley Connector trail before hiking the Curley Sands trail back to the vehicles. The forecast is for a mix of sun and cloud, temps ranging from -7 to -2C.

Required Items to Bring:
K country pass. Microspikes and hiking poles

Recommended Items to Bring:
Use our Event Checklists to make sure you have everything you need.

How to Get There:

Event Directions:
