Controlled Burn Hikes

For the Group or Solo Adventurer

 

Hikes are available during the early spring and early summer summer months.

Hikes are put on hold during the hot summer months unless booked on one of the Channel Islands. 

Hikes resume in the fall till mid winter.

 

 

Hikes are kept to a maximum of 6 participants in order to respect to ensure minimal impact on nature.

Hikes are held on weekends unless special arrangements/rates have been met.

  

The next hiking season will resume in September.

Keep checking in with the website or contact Melissa for weekends when she will be out in the Channel Islands and feel free to to arrange a hike while she is out there.

 

Controlled Burn Fitness encourages you  to get outside, breath some fresh air, even take a walk in the rain.  

Don't forget to gaze at the full moon or enjoy the stars when the moon retires.

What to Bring on Your Hike

 

Water.

And drink it!

A comfortable day pack. 

I suggest one with a waist belt to take tension off your neck and shoulders. 

Comfortable layers. 

Dress in layers.  It can be sunny yet cold.  It can get windy.  The weather changes very quickly up there! 

Footwear

Comfortable footwear that you have worn before.

Socks

I suggest bringing an extra pair of socks.

NO COTTON!!! 

Cotton will NOT keep you warm if it gets wet and that includes sweat.

Bring fast drying, moisture-wicking clothing that is comfortable.

Hat

A fuzzy, warm hat to keep those ears warm.

Trekking Poles. 

Healthy snacks.

Ziploc bags

for your trash.

Leave NO Trace!!!! 

That includes all fruits, seeds, peels, shells!!! 
Pack it in...Pack it out!!!

Sunscreen!

Even if it is cloudy in the morning, put it on before you get in your car to come to hike.  And put some more on  before we begin the hike.

Feel free to bring anything else that will make your day more enjoyable!!!

Just remember, you've gotta carry it.
