Day Hike - Tatoosh Peak

Tatoosh Peak is a 10.4 round trip hike with a 4,100 foot elevation gain. The former lookout site provides a great territorial view of Mt. Rainier and mountains in the Tatoosh Range as well as Mt St Helens and Mt Adams. Fall colors above the treeline will be spectacular. This will be a mentored hike for Jeff Crawford and all questions should be directed to him. His email is jcrawford27@yahoo.com

We will meet at Haggans on Cooper Point Road at 5:30 am on the Pier 1 Imports side of the parking lot.  You should be there early to arrange carpool, move your gear, and be ready to roll at 5:30.   We expect the hike and time at the peak to take no more than 8 hours but probably less time than that.
