Whittakers Bunkhouse by 7 am. Whittakers is located at 30205 WA-706, Ashford, WA 98304
From Whittakers we may want to carpool to the "trailhead" using available high clearance vehicles. The forest road we will be driving on is in very bad shape from reports over the years.
Our take off point and route for this scramble will depend on the condition of the road. There will most likely be brush bashing on the way up and down.
