Alpental lot. Time TBD. The idea is to start hiking in the dark, aiming for sunrise to happen when we are around Thumbtack.
This is very weather-dependent, and the weather around this time of year is usually not great. There is a very good chance this will get bumped once or twice down the calendar to a later date.
