Leader's notes

Steady uphill climb, lots of switchbacks. Our ascending pace will be slower than our descending pace.
This is not the hike for you if you want to go faster than 1.5-2.0 mph (overall avg moving). I like to keep the group within sight of one another. I expect to finish the hike around 3pm-ish. This means possible traffic congestion on the way home. Please be comfortable with this style.
Hazardous weather, trail or road conditions will cancel this hike.
