The main meeting location is the Safeway in Enumclaw. The trailhead park can fill up quickly on nice summer days. We will meet in Enumclaw at 6:00 am. Depending on where participants are originating other carpool locations can be arranged.
Expect an 8 hours day of playing in the mountains. Snow will most likely be lingering on the mountain in July.
