I will advise meeting place and time to those signed-up. I plan on being at the trailhead about 9:30AM on Saturday morning. It's about a 2 hour drive from the Seattle area to the turn-off to the trailhead off highway 20
This is a challenging trip, and the forecast high temperatures will make it even more challenging; but the reward on the summit is really worth it! There is a short ridge to traverse where there is some minor exposure on both sides.
