Teton Group Outing Schedule 2008

Get outdoors and explore with the Teton Group!

When you call the hike leader for details you will be instructed as to what you need to bring, meeting location and time. As much as possible, The Sierra Club encourages car pooling.

We generally limit our group size to 12 people. If a snow shoe/ski is scheduled, it will automatically become a hike if there is no snow. All outings are free. Donations to drivers are appreciated. We are excited about our new schedule and looking forward to seeing you on our outings!
