Late note as of Thursday afternoon, 6/7: It looks like poor weather on Saturday will require a change of destination, but probably no change in meeting time or place.
Here are the original leader notes:
Potential snow scrambles are disappearing fast this year as the consistently warm weather melts the snow. If you are a scramble student who has not yet done a snow scramble, you can contact me and I will register you before sign-up opens.
The pace on the ascent will be on the slow side of moderate. We'll do a bit of arrest practice on the descent as well as some glissading.
