Let's climb classic route at Washingon Pass on the longest day of the year! It doesn't mean we can skip bringing headlamps, but there is a decent chance we may not have to use them :)
If I get one more experienced leader willing to join the roster, I will be able to extend roster for 2 more participants.
Priority for participant spots goes to Foothills Climbing Community, particularly those who are actively involved in Basic Climbing Course.
