Once you set up the account, the Rec office will register you for the hike afterwards from the sign-in sheets or you can register for hikes (and any other Rec office programs) directly. But if you haven't set up an account, they can't register you and the hike count will show up lower then it actually was. Thanks -- questions to the Rec Office: 860 638 4500
