This hike will be done counter-clockwise and include a 2-mile rt car shuttle. Two drivers will be needed. Those who ride with me will be expected to provide proof of covid-19 vaccination and also wear face masks while in my vehicle. The other driver is encouraged to use his/her discretion.
If you have questions and for more information, please read the latest Mountaineers Covid-19 Response Guidance if you have not yet done so: https://www.mountaineers.org/membership/the-mountaineers-covid-19-response
We may get wet feet on the return trip, so I suggest waterproof/resistant boots. Trekking poles will also be helpful on some stretches of trail. Don't forget a camera, we'll see some interesting things! I am not sure if a NW Forest Pass is needed, bring one if you have it.
Place/time will be emailed to participants
