Seniors Outdoors! is hosting a hike of the Rhoda-Verde-CDT Loop at 6 a.m. Friday. The hike is intended for those with lots of stamina, but not necessarily speed. However, it is very long with significant vertical rise.
The group will start at the Highland Mary trailhead and hit an elevation of 13,434 feet over a pass between Rhoda and Whitehead Peaks. Hikers will continue to Verde Lake (off-trail), then hook up with the Continental Divide Trail to form a large loop back to the trailhead. Most of the route is rolling tundra with exceptional views.
Four-wheel drive is necessary. The cost for the carpool is $11. No dogs are allowed, and the group size limit is 10. RSVP to Charlie Berglund at 247-9747 or chasberglund@msn.com.
