Field trip: Trip Leader School
Scenario Session – Meyer Ranch Park - Legault Mountain
This class is only for those who are interested in pursuing becoming a CMC trip leader. It is a prerequisite before leading a Leader in Training Hike and getting signed off as a CMC leader. As we hike we will be going over common scenarios that may arise on trips, spend time talking more about the logistics of being a leader, and discuss next steps to becoming a leader.

We will meet at 7:30am at the Meyer Ranch Park trailhead:
10490 S Turkey Creek Rd, Morrison, CO 80465
We will be going off the main trail for the last 0.6 miles to go to and from the Legault summit. This last part of the trail is steeper, but it is a decently traveled trail so pretty easy to follow.
