MANISTEE RIVER VALLEY HIKE

In 2020 this is an optional training hike.  

Such a popular hike with our Cairn Stone alumni that many will come for this hike that are not even training this year.  A range of distance options give moderate hikers a great experience hiking along the meandering Manistee River and the long hike is a great challenge for extreme hikers that will demonstrate their endurance.  This gives each hiker the confidence to take on a big hike and gives Coach Gunn assurance that you can safely take on that challenging hike.

PLEASE REGISTER WITH COACH GUNN;  Mail in the clip off form or use the online form (scroll down)  [Make hotel reservations now - rooms go fast.]

In 2022 for our elite Out West hikers this hike is mandatory to prove their fitness level.  This endurance hike rewards the hiker with the beautiful views of the meandering Manistee River along the second half of the course.  It's a deep woods experience you will long remember.

Holiday Inn Express in Cadillac will give us a $162.00 rate (plus 11% tax) 2 night minimum.  Call 231-779-4656 to make your reservation now - "Ron Gunn Hikers" (Use group code RGA)  All rooms have 2 Queen size beds. 

And register with Coach by September 3. 

The Manistee Hike is not an organized trip.  You must travel on your own and make your own hotel reservations.  SEND IN YOUR FORM BY SEP 3 - Coach Gunn does need to hear from everyone planning to attend so he can make the correct preparations.  Whether you camp, stay at another hotel or drive back that night it is helpful for him to know your plans so the hike can go well.

This is a great carpool opportunity.  If you have room in your car or would like a ride, and if you have a room and want a roommate or want to be a roommate, contact Thom.  He will assist connecting drivers with riders and roommates.  Thom@CairnStoneTours.com 269.462.0683 (include your request on your registration form)
