Meet at the South Trailhead entrance by the restroom at 7am.
Experience both sides of Pinnacle Peak on this trip which will be a double ascent. We will hike from the South Trail to the lookout cabin and down the Cal Magnuson Trail on the opposite side then do the reverse! This is a great training trip for those looking to gain some elevation at a relatively close to home destination with a new fire lookout!
Please be mindful of the posted pace before signing up. If you struggle keeping a consistent 2 mph pace hiking uphill, consider choosing another trip.
