Hemlock Mountain - 8 miles, 3600' gain, S3-T3
Hemlock Mountain is located just west of the Cascade Crest, northwest of Snoqualmie Pass between The Tooth and Bryant Peak. We'll traverse the summit from the Bryant-Hemlock saddle SE to the Hemlock-Tooth saddle before looping back to the Denny Creek Trail. Ice axe and helmet required.

I'll email TOPO! maps in JPEG format to trip participants prior to departure. Questions? Please call me.
