description: Chicago Queer Outdoors and Out There Run Club are teaming up for a group hike and run (choose your preference) at the beautiful Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve. Meeting Instructions: We will meet at 11:00 AM in the parking lot linked above. IMPORTANT: If you are using a navigation app that is NOT Google Maps, please manually enter "Waterfall Glen Main Parking Lot" into your GPS app. Confirm that you're heading to the right spot by comparing the map screenshot below. When you arrive, look for black Toyota Corolla with the Pride flag! Hike/Run Plan: The entire hike is 6 miles to the waterfall and back. The runners will run 3 miles to the waterfall. Walkers will hike to the waterfall. Runners and hikers will walk back together after we spend some time chilling by the waterfall. Carpooling: Carpooling will be organized through the Queer Chicago Outdoor page's linktree. If you are interested in carpooling please fill out the Google Form linked in this plan, or on the Queer Chicago Outdoor instagram page. You are not required to carpool. Please only fill out the carpool questions if you intend to carpool. Weather: Weather predictions change by day, so I will be monitoring the forecast in the days leading up to the event. You will be informed about weather cancellations via email. Late Policy: We will try and wait for anyone who arrives late. The latest we will wait for late arrivals will be 11:30 AM. Please understand that if you arrive after 11:30 AM, we will start the hike without you. If you want to try and catch up with us, that's fine. What to expect: This trail is mostly flat and well maintained. It is relatively easy. Wear comfy shoes and comfy cool clothes. What to bring: Bug spray, sunscreen, snacks/lunch, water. Dogs allowed (on leash).
