Day Hike - Mount Dickerman

The pace is listed as 2.0-2.3 mph, but we will adjust to trail conditions and a pace that allows conversations. Should the weather and or trail conditions work against us, we will discuss and agree to alternatives as a group. Other than personal bio-breaks, we will stay together as a group within speaking distance of one another. Our plan would be to spend no more than 15-20 minutes at the objective to rest, and enjoy a snack, prior to returning. 

If you do not have similar hiking experience with the Mountaineers I will need to see your last three hikes including pace, distance and elevation gain. One of them should be at least equal to this hike.

Take the Mountain Loop Highway east out of Granite Falls. From the Verlot Public Service center, continue along the Mountain Loop Highway for little more than 16 miles. Look for the well signed, large parking lot on the left (north) side of the road. Outhouses are available at the trailhead, and a Northwest Forest Pass is required.

We will meet in the parking lot for the Mount Dickerman trailhead at 8:30am sharp for introductions, and we will begin hiking by 8:45am.

I will not be organizing carpools, so please connect with one another if you want to ride together.
