Use of the hotel amenities are encouraged, remembering that all participants of the Trek are ambassadors of CMC and should behave accordingly.

Additional Costs: The Trek concludes on Friday, March 22. Students who wish to do local sight-seeing before returning to campus must budget and pay for a hotel on their own.
