No day on this trip will be easy. We will climb approximately 2,800 feet on the first day and our third day may exceed 12 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. This area will likely still have substantial numbers of mosquitos in late July, 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, in order to allow time to get over Fall Creek Pass before afternoon storms.
