Leavenworth, Fri June 1, 8pm

Being in early June and using crampons, this trip will be more strenuous than the rating of 10 miles / 4,200' gain might suggest. Participants need to have physical conditioning of having done strenuous snow scrambles, or hiking with 5,000' gain.

Meet in Leavenworth Fri evening @ 8pm, to camp in the back yard of a local resident and wake at 5am for an early start.

This destination has high reward, overlooking Mt Stuart & the Enchantments area.

Leader may pre-select up to 3 Everett scrambling students prior to registration opening date of May 21.
