Morning training hike/scramble! We'll meet at the Mt Morrison South Ridge Trailhead (https://g.co/kgs/KRGN3aq) at 5:30 AM. Not sure anyone will even need headlamps as that is close enough to the solstice where it should be fairly light already. Please note there is a short class 3 scrambling section, but mostly there is just vert and dirt.
