Samish Overlook at 8:30am. A Discover Pass is required for parking.
Carpooling TBD.
We'll power hike the uphills and run an easy pace (5-6mph) on the flats and downhills. Most of the elevation gain is in the first 2.5 miles of the loop on the ascent to Oyster Dome. There's several trail junctions along the route so the goal will be to go a pace where the group can stay pretty close together.
Traction devices required in case there's any snow/ice on the trail.
