Day Hike - Dirty Harry's Balcony & Peak

This is a mentored hike for Sebastian Jaskowski, mentored by David Goetz. I am hoping for a pleasant, moderately paced hike up to Dirty Harry's Peak, with a short stopover at the Balcony on the way up. Hoping to move at a steady pace of about 2 mph, with quick 5 minute stops every hour or so, and a longer 15 to 20 minute break at the top. 

The hike will be approximately 8 miles with 3600 feet of elevation gain, please make sure you are comfortable with the distance, pace, and elevation gain.

The hike will proceed rain, shine, or snow unless particularly hazardous conditions present themselves. Please bring your 10 essentials, proper layers for the weather, and micro spikes and poles in case we encounter any snow at higher elevations. 

Hoping to meet at 7:45am for introductions at the Dirty Harry's Peak Trailhead off Exit 38 on I-90, and hoping to be moving by 8am.

Looking forward to hiking with you all!

Let's meet at the Dirty Harry's Balcony trailhead at 7:45am, and aim to start hiking by 8am.
