Alpine Scramble - Stiletto Spur—Pacific Crest Trail Loop

TBD - it's a 3hr drive from the Greenlake P&R in Seattle.  I don't plan on leaving too early.

Sunrise 7am/Sunset 7pm

This trip will be led at a moderate or slightly slower than moderate trip and will only go with decent weather forecast and little smoke.  Hoping some larch may have color.

I have not done this peak before.  Peggy Goldman's book assigns it skill level 4 (out of 5) and difficulty level 4 (out of 5).

She equates skill 4 as intense and difficulty 4 as advanced and
