A. The difficulty level of the activities that we offer is indicated by our SOAP scale.
1 bar = Anyone can do it. Just get up off the couch and come.
2 bars = You should probably be active and fairly comfortable being outdoors, but no prior experience is required.
3 bars = This could require some sweat, and some experience with outdoor physical activity is a prerequisite. Be prepared to be challenged.
