We have made available digital versions of the upcoming 26 mile hike that can be downloaded to your smartphone or watch which will lead you through the course route as you walk. If you use or have a navigation app this may work for you. These are also available on our website (towards the page bottom) on the Hike Schedules page.   Below are some tips on how to use.  Contact us if you have questions.
