We will meet at the High Point Upper parking lot at 4:30pm (Exit 20 off of I-90). A Discovery Pass pass is needed to park there. There are restrooms near the parking lot.
We will hike/jog up the Nook trail (and Tallus trail) to Section Line trail, to then reach West Tiger #3 Summit. We will pause shortly at the top (it's getting cold!), then descend via Cable Line and West Tiger 3 trail.
