Attached is a trip roster. You should feel comfortable communicating with each other before the trip, especially about your travel plans. Please note that all transportation to the lodge, trailheads, or other activities is the responsibility of each trip member. Leaders are unable to arrange carpools for participants, because of Sierra Club liability. Those arriving by air should plan to rent a car or take a shuttle/taxi or make their own arrangements to carpool with other trip participants.
There is NO public transportation from the Reno airport to the lodge. The trailheads are within 5-10 miles (one way) except for one day when we will go to Lake Tahoe (40 mi.) plus a drive part way around the lake for a little over 100 mi. round trip. We ask participants to donate some money for the drivers. The trip officially beings at 4 pm on Sunday, September 20 It is recommended you arrive a little early to unpack and get oriented. We will meet in the living room (Lewis & Clark Room) with some snacks and refreshments and spend some time getting acquainted before dinner is served at 6 p.m. Our last meal of the trip will be breakfast on Sunday, Sept 26th, although you will have the option of packing a sack lunch to take with you. Let me know what kind of drink you prefer for happy hours we will have several days after hikes; soda, juice, wine (white/red), beer (lager/ale/light). If you are planning to stay at the lodge either before the trip begins or after it ends, please arrange for the lodge staff, (800) 679-6775, to bill you separately for those nights.
