The Prescott Hiking Club is located in Prescott,
Arizona. Hikes are offered for all ability levels
several days per week; we also have monthly camping trips, and
periodic picnics and parties. Members live in Prescott, Prescott
Valley, Chino Valley, and other Central Yavapai County areas. Dues
are $5 per household, annually. Membership is open to anyone
interested.The Club is informally
structured; the only officer is the club treasurer. Club rules are:
1) Never leave a hiker behind.
2) Leaders wait for others at trail junctions.
3) Members should hike with the group appropriate for their speed.
Additionally, remember that the hike leader is the
leader,
and decides on the progress of the hike. With safety in mind, hikers
should not scatter or go off on their own.
And, we should make sure that we are custodians of
the forests; we pick up trash, but leave everything else for future
hikers.
To join the club, please
print this form or simply join us for a trial hike first.
