The T4 rating applies to Eagle Peak; Chutla is quite a bit easier. If you haven't tried a T4 trip yet, this would be a good one to start with. It's a short scramble from the trail, so if you find the exposure to be too much, you can wait at the trail and still be able to do the scramble of Chutla.
This trip was originally scheduled for 8/8, then for 8/22, now for 8/29. I hope the smoke is finally gone.
Longmire at 8:30 am.
