Let's see if we can catch some fall color near its prime in the Teanaway Valley!
Plan is to take our time going up to Ingalls Pass, scramble up to Not Hinkhouse where we'll have extended early lunch and continue on to Longs Pass for descent back to the trailhead. Weather permitting, everyone should have plenty of time to take lots of pictures along the way without being rushed.
If your normal pace is faster than casual, please sign up only if you are able and willing to moderate your pace to stay with the group.
This trip is open to fully vaccinated scramblers.
07:45 pre-trip huddle at Esmeralda Basin Trailhead, 08:00 departure. NW Forest Pass or equivalent required. Road to the trailhead is rough with potholes but passable with passenger vehicles.
