7:30 am
I5/SR 512 Park and Ride (10617 S Tacoma Way, Lakewood, WA 98499). We'll meet up near the McDonalds.
We'll head up and hope that the upper parking lot is open. If not, we can hike up to that spot and snowshoe on from there. On a clear day you have a 360 degree view from High Hut.
Please bring all your normal necessities (lunch, snacks, water). Rain gear is always good and a change of clothes for the ride home.
We'll head up to High Hut, have lunch and wander back to the cars. There's a bit of elevation to this trip, but it's on a nice wide road. We'll take our time and enjoy the day.
2 drivers with high clearance (4wd) vehicles and sno-park passes will be needed for the trip.
