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.
