Esmeralda Basin Trailhead 6:45 a.m. Boots on the trails at 6:58 a.m. sharp. Recommend car camp or nearby campgrounds given 2.5-ish hour driving distance from the metro area.
We will do the scramble variation instead of the first pitch (and probably scramble the second), you need to be comfortable with some unroped exposed T5 scrambling. We will also be doing the 5.6 variation (not the regular Basic route).
Speed and efficiency is Safety in the mountains. Be ready to move accordingly.
