We'll carpool or meet at the Sloan Peak trailhead the night before so we can get a 5am start.
This is a strenuous climb as a one day, with a great rock scramble to get to the summit. Priority will be given to Everett basic students. Please email me if you're interested, and let me know what you do for conditioning and any climbs you have completed or are registered for.
