We would like to get started on the hike by 7:30am. This trip is going to involve leaving a car at our ending point so expect an early meeting around 5:00am in order to meet, drop the car and drive to our starting spot. More details sent prior to trip.
This hike is for you if your pace is 2.0+ mph including stops and you have recently completed a 14 mile+ hike with 2.0' gain. Our leader and co-leader have each done part of this segment but not all together so it's a bit exploratory.
