Leader's notes

[This trip only visits Lookout Dome, NOT Storm King] A beautiful hike up a pristine valley, followed by stunning sunrise and sunset views. The gatekeeper for these views are the ~10 miles (20 miles round trip) and ~5000’ of elevation gain between the cars and our resting place for the night, a situation that contributes to a solitary experience. Photos from past trips to this area can be seen here and here.
