PED 5D Day Hiking

Physical activity instruction in day hiking. Students will learn and practice basic hiking principles, safety principles, research hikes in the area, trip planning, basic navigating, and trail etiquette. The class will involve day excursions between 4 to 8 miles in length with varying elevation changes and on a variety of surfaces (asphalt, gravel, natural trails.) Due to the length of the hikes, this class will not meet all semester, but only on the dates noted in the course registration.
