This is my (Doug's) Mentored Lead please direct all questions to myself. Please take a look at the Required Equipment tab I've added an "11th" essential. Also, I'd like to keep the pace up and take as few breaks as possible. I'm not going for a land speed record, but I would like to try and keep the group moving. Discovery passes are required at the trail head for parking. If you are not an Olympia Branch climbing/scrambling student, you may request permission after 4/24/2016 to join the group, and waitlisted folks will be added in the order of request.
TBD... I will send out an email prior to the hike date.
