Various P&Rs to accommodate attendees, then 7:30 am at the trailhead on the Dosewallips river road (we will use the 6:20AM sailing of the Edmonds ferry).

Beautiful views of Mt Constance and a great workout at ~7 miles/~5000' to Point 5345 (a.k.a. Valhalla Peak).  A very steep trail to 5050 pass, followed by cross country travel to Valhalla Peak and views of Constance.  Microspikes required due to slippery nature of very steep trail (moss and slime), and snowshoes for upper parts. Photos from past trips can be seen  here.
