We don't plan on being out during the dark, but it's always a good idea to bring a headlamp or flashlight for all participants, and at least a light jacket. 

We will be meeting at the Red Town Trailhead in Bellevue and plan to step off at 4:30 p.m. The hike should take about 2 hours.

For the comfort of others, please do not bring pets on this hike.
