Date: Wednesday, June 25

Time: 9:00 a.m. 

Carpool meetup: Quality Inn Paradise Creek, SE 1400 Bishop Blvd.

As with the 40th and 50th reunions, the hike will begin from the parking lot in the picnic area of Kamiak Butte County Park. Although the summit is 3.5 miles round trip, we have not done that in the past, and won’t this time. We’ll take our time to enjoy the beautiful views and connect with classmates. I am looking forward to having a good time hiking with you, Ron Kinder

What to bring: water, a snack, rain gear depending on the weather. Wear sturdy shoes. If you need trekking poles, I will have an extra pair
