Mind and Mountain Weekly Hikes

Starting this Sunday July 12th through til August 30th, Reach Physio Solutions will be leading hikes in the surrounding area twice a week.
We hope you'll join us

We'd be thrilled if you'd join us for "Mind and Mountain", a summer-long hiking program. It's an opportunity to be outdoors with a friendly group, feel safe, get some exercise and here's the twist...take a "mindful approach" to hiking.

As your leader, upon meeting at the trail head, I will share with you a quote or short reading to ponder, could be anything from Socrates to fairy tales to the latest on CNN. If you choose to, you may comtemplate the message during your hike (or NOT, we won't be checking!). We'll hike at our own pace, meeting at a mid point to stop for a rest and a stretch.

All we ask is that you bring water, appropriate clothing and an open mind! Friendly dogs are welcome too. The hikes will be approximately two hours in length for the average hiker. We will leave at 6pm on Tuesdays and 8:30 am on Sundays. The location will be announced via email (if you contact me and let me know you're interested, you'll be put on an email list, your address won't be shown to others, I promise), it will be also be posted on our website home page 2 days before hand and also on our Facebook group page ( to join, type "reach physio" in the search box). You can use the link below to get there now.

Oh, and I forgot to mention. The purpose of this, other than to be outside, with great people enjoying Squamish's splendor, is to fundraise for two local programs. The first recipient is the Seniors' Fall Prevention Program who are in need of equipment for their exercise programs starting very soon in the new Seniors Center opening this fall. The second recipient is as yet not decided- I'm open to your suggestions. Proceeds will be split 50/50. Please bring a cash donation with you to the hike (suggested $3-5).

Please pass on this information to anyone whom you think might enjoy group hikes. We will have hikes of varying levels of physical difficulty so that people of different abilities may come. I suspect we'll hike The Chief a few times, that being the most "difficult" and maybe walk the Four Lakes trail at Alice Lake, that being the most "accessible" hike.

I hope you'll join us.
