Planning a Hike
Planning a hike involves first preparing yourself personally to ensure you have the certifications, and ensuring that the agency you are planning the hike with has an MOU in place with ICO. Then 2 months before the outing, you begin the specific steps to prepare for the outing (including deciding where you want to go, completing a trip request, completing a safety management plan, etc.). These steps are described in the ICO Policy Handbook: https://drive.google.com/file/d/13yNDSozUvvU6VzTLqCOkeVm8_qrJIiHy/view?usp=sharing
