5. You understand that you will encounter people

maintain social distance.
6. You must read and sign the
“club’s NEW release of liability form”. You may
sign it and bring it to the hike OR email the
signed form (scanned or digital) back to the

website or here.
NO ONE WILL BE ALLOWED TO HIKE WITHOUT A MASK
AND A SIGNED LIABILITY RELEASE FORM.
We'll hike about 3.0 hours through the hilly
terrain of the Rifle Range trail, located in the
in Lucien Morin Park at the south end of
Irondequoit Bay. This hike will be very
strenuous at times. We will hike ~5,5 miles and
climb ~1200 feet of elevation (lots of hills).
We will meet at 8:45 A.M. and start hiking at
9:00 am and return around 12:00 pm. Meet at the
parking lot on Empire Blvd east of
MacGregors. Bring water and come prepared for
the weather conditions. If there is any chance
of icy or snowy conditions, please be prepared
with the appropriate equipment of microspikes,
Yaktrax or Snowshoes (always keep these in your
car to be prepared). Please bring a signed ADK
Liability form or email a signed form to ltelle....@gmail.com.

Additional Information:
The Sunday Hikes are offered as a benefit to
current and potential new members of ADK. All
our hikes have a steady pace, so are not "nature
strolls" but they are also not "endurance
tests", although we do at times hike at a brisk
pace. You'll always want to bring lunch and
plenty to drink. Equally important, is the
proper footwear, gear and clothing for changing
conditions. Our hikes our planned by our leaders
to last three hours, but many times unexpected
delays can occur, so If you are pressed for
time, this hike may not be a good fit. .We're
always looking for new places to go and
additional leaders. Minors are welcome when
accompanied by a parent or legal guardian. If
not, the responsible adult must have the signed
release which is available on our website. Dogs
are not allowed on this hike.
