We'll meet at 9:00 AM at the "Bay Town" Trailhead. No passes required. There is porto at the trailhead.
And if you need another round of caffeine before heading home, there is a drive-thru espresso or light sandwiches/soups at the Port Gamble General Store, both in Port Gamble.
The trail is generally maintained but depending on rainfall prior to the hike, there can be a few spots with mud or light water crossings. There are options to change the route if that happens. Also, we'll try to return on a quieter trail that avoids the late starting hikers...
Trekking poles recommended.
