Fall Hikes
Fall is finally here. Light looks warmer, the air fresher and the trees are dressed up in a beautiful coat of earthy colors. Wherever you hike, leaves crunch under foot as your breath visibly floats away. And as the weather cools, so does the necessity for something overly epic. Distances become shorter, the altitude less and the need for multi-day adventures gets swapped out with the necessity to relax. A cup of tea or hot chocolate ends every excursion outside—and bright eyes and rosy cheeks become the hallmarks of a day well spent.

Safety In The Mountains
Weather
Just like a hearty breakfast, checking the weather forecast is an important part of your daily mountain morning routine. At high altitudes, you may experience heat, rain, high winds and even snow — all in the same day. When packing, check the weather and take equipment for every possible outcome.
Dangers
Rough terrain, narrow and steep paths, falling rocks – all are risks when traversing the mountains and along the coast. Thorough preparation, suitable equipment and an honest evaluation of your own skills are key to staying safe. If you don’t have any experience in certain environments, it's best to bring someone who does.
Respect
Whether you are on a popular trail or off the beaten path, make sure to show respect toward other people and the environment. Beware of other people around – below steep slopes there are often other trails, so don't kick down any rocks. Always leave a place as you found it and show respect for your companions, people you meet and the environment.
Emergency Numbers
Research and keeo the phone number of the local mountain rescue on hand. Make sure you always have some battery left on your mobile device and be cognisant of where you are at all times so you can accurately communicate your location in case of an emergency.
