This is an overnight climbing trip for Everett Branch basic students who need to graduate BCC and Intermediate students who need to graduate LOR. If you sign up for 9/22 Kangaroo Temple climb, you are committed to hike in and climb The Fin / NW Ridge as well on Sat 9/21. When you contact the leader to ask sign up permission please aknowledge you did read this and you are willing to spend the whole weekend in the area. All participants must be comfortable with scrambling to the base of the climbs and exposure on a couple pitches (on both The Fin and Kangaroo Temple).
We will camp most likely below Kangaroo Pass close to the tarn. If we are lucky, the larches might start turning their colors that weekend
