Mode of Operations: Hiking Adventures with Rooted Rose
Arrival Time:
All hikers are strongly advised to arrive at the trailhead half an hour before the scheduled hike start time. This allows for proper group coordination and ensures a timely departure.
Purpose of the Hike:
Peaking the mountain is never the sole objective of our hikes. We embark on these journeys to hike, enjoy nature, and foster a sense of community. If circumstances such as weather, injury, or group dynamics suggest turning back is the best option, your guides will make this decision promptly.
Prior Experience:
No prior hiking experience is necessary, but an open mind to the trails is encouraged. Even beginner hikes in the White Mountains present challenges due to rocky terrain, water crossings, and elevation gains. Embrace the adventure, meet the mountain, and learn along the way.
Your Guides - Dom & Erika:
Dom and Erika are your dedicated guides. Your main focus is to be a respectful community member and put one foot in front of the other. They are here to ensure a safe and enjoyable hiking experience.
Proper Gear:
All hikers must come prepared with the proper gear. We are available to schedule a free 15-minute call at any time to address your concerns, discuss necessary equipment, and provide guidance for a successful hike. Winter Gear and backpacks are available to rent when booking
TRUST:
You are capable of navigating the challenges presented by the trail. Trust in your abilities, stay open to the experience, and revel in the journey.
