High Point Trailhead, 7am. We will organize a car shuttle from here to the starting trailhead; see notes below. Drivers will need a Discovery Pass.
Let's see how far we can hike in the rain. I've wanted to try the entire 16-mile Tiger Mountain Trail (TMT) traverse, so this might be just the right day to do it.
Please see the WTA description below. Participants should be comfortable with long distances and prepared to help with navigation:

If the weather forecast is truly horrible we will switch to a shorter loop hike on Tiger starting and ending at High Point trailhead.
