SUMMARY: Style Peak, Peru Peak and Mt Tabor Loop: elevation (highest point) 3.416ft, distance to highest is 3 miles, total trip distance 9.5 miles (includes road walking). https://www.alltrails.com/explore/map/styles-peru-and-tabor-loop-8b57000 This trip is considered Moderate. Group will meet at 9 am at the Mad Tom Notch Road area and depart up the trail at 9:15am. PREPARATION/WHAT TO BRING: It is recommended that hikers have extra dry clothing and wind protection. Always have water (There is no potable water sources along this trail) and food. If you need suggestions on what to bring, PLEASE ASK!! It is also highly recommended to bring a BLISTER KIT (DIY kits online). If this is the first hike of the season or brand-new footwear, foot first aid most likely will be necessary. For this trip it is important to bring along flexibility, patience, and a sense of humor. It is possible for black flies to be out by this point in the season. Bug repellent is recommended. Remember the one thing worse than annoying bugs is people complaining about annoying bugs. Helpful hint: Avoid perfumed scents in soaps, bodywash and shampoo. These will attract bugs. Group Size It is not fun leaving folks out of trips. Decreasing the impact to the environment is always a priority! Please plan to “carry in and carry out” all items. It may also be possible to collect other hikers’ debris along the way. Weather: If weather is a concern any updates or cancellation information will be posted by the Thursday prior by 6pm. If it is a cancellation it will include a rescheduled date so participants can watch for that opportunity. Safety is a priority! Any time a hiker is injured or lost a HUGE team of volunteers is dispatched to aid in the search and rescue efforts. No one wants to be injured or put other in harms way. Always be prepared. Know your limits. Any questions feel free to contact me. Group will meet at 9 am at the Mad Tom Notch Road area and depart up the trail at 9:15am |
