100 MILE HIKING CLUB:
Our 100 Mile Hiking Club challenges employees to hike, in a single summer season, 100 miles within the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem. A $10 membership fee entitles you to a membership t-shirt, hike log sheet, and Day Hiking Yellowstone, a hiking guide written by former YNP employee and author Tom Carter. This compact, easy to carry book highlights twenty classic Yellowstone hikes along with helpful information about staying safe in the park’s wild, remote, high altitude terrain.
Hiking 100 miles earns members an achievement t-shirt (that’s two shirts for $10!), a keychain, and a certificate proclaiming their accomplishment. Lifelong Hiking Club members can work towards the 500, 1,000, or 5,000 mile milestones.
Join the 100 Mile Hiking Club at any location recreation office. All you need is $10 and a sense of adventure!
