Will meet early at Excelsior Trailhead on Mt Baker Highway- exact time TBD - will need to arrange a car shuttle from Church Mountain trailhead.
This trip is part of the 2024 Everett Scramble Reunion. All participants must be staying at the lodge. In your request for permission, please state whether you are staying at the lodge.
We will follow the Excelsior trail before scrambling to Fossil. We will then follow traverse the ridge to the Church Mountain look out. Then we will take the Church Mountain trail to that that trailhead. This will be a long day that will likely involve lots of route finding - with no guarantee of success.
