Although this trip is rated as moderate, no day will be easy and our third day will exceed 10 miles. Please be prepared to provide details regarding your recent backpacking experience, including mileage and elevation gain and pack weight.

You will need to bring the 10 essentials for backpacking and a bear resistant container for food. Although I've scheduled this trip for early August, this area may still have substantial numbers of mosquitos, so come prepared.

More details regarding this trip will be emailed to registrants shortly before the trip date. Contact me with any questions before then.

We will meet at the Woolly Mammoth Park & Ride. Details will be provided closer to the trip date but expect an early departure, perhaps as early as 5 am, given the approximately 4.5-hour drive to the trailhead.
