We will meet at the Puyallup/South Hill Park N Ride, Hwy 512 and 94th street, (north of the freeway), at 7:30 AM to carpool. Northwest Forest Service permit may be required to park overnight at Chinook Pass.

An easy way to get out overnight, to a popular overnight camping spot. There may be lingering snow still on the ground, so bring appropriate ground protection. This may also be a good time to try out new equipment. We may explore the PCT and Sourdough Gap area.
