Day Hike - Cougar Mountain: Harvey Manning Trailhead

This is a mentored hike with a new hike leader.  We'll stay together taking breaks as needed.  We will take a couple of trails to a spur to the Fantastic Erratic where we'll take a brief break and then loop back on different trails. The steepest section is the spur to the Erratic, a drop and return climb of about 200 ft in .5 miles. We'll plan to be back at the trailhead by 6:30pm but adjust as needed.  Sunset will be about 8pm. Trails are on the Green Trails Cougar Mountain.  King County Parks also has a good map with all the Cougar Mountain trails. Sturdy water-proof footwear and trekking poles are recommended.

Meet at the Harvey Manning Trailhead at 4pm, boots on the ground at 4:15pm. On old maps it may be shown as the Anti Aircraft Peak Trailhead.   No pass is required. You can use Google Maps for the Harvey Manning Trailhead.
