This is a fine early-season BP trip, affording a relatively convenient way to climb these two amazing Lost Creek wilderness peaks. Myself and my wife/co-leader have backpacked and climbed peaks in this area many times, and just keep going back.
This will be a relatively strenuous trip, requiring a reasonably light pack. As such, I require some sort of discussion before signing up to discuss packing decisions and previous experience, etc.
TBD, but typically, we offer our home near C470 and HW 285 as the initial meeting place, affording a safe overnight place to park, and carpool from there.
