Meet at 10 AM @ Ravenna Park & Ride, north end. Look for silver Impreza with the hatchback open.

The fall colors are out so despite the weather, we will still head out into the beautiful Pacific Northwest backcountry! With snow and thundershowers in the forecast, we will hike to Pete Lake, a lower elevation destination with heavy tree cover, for an overnight stay. If the weather ends up kinder than expected, we can opt for Sunday morning side trips to either Spectacle Lake or Waptus Pass.

Note: This is a mentored backpacking trip
