6:15 at the Enumclaw US Forest Service Ranger Station, 450 Roosevelt Ave E, Enumclaw, WA 98022. Or 7:00 at the trailhead. We'll have the trail mostly to ourselves going up and we'll get seats at the summit
3100' in 4 miles, it is a fairly steep, mostly steady, slope up. You should have recently hiked a similar trail at 1.5 MPH .
Lots of time for flora and photos.
