Preference given to Everett Students until July 7th. Bulger frontrunners welcome (you know who you are).
If weather forces it we might trim this to two days. Three days allows us a more moderate trip, or, at least opportunities to game the weather.
If we find out the route is "out" early this year (it often is in through August - at least the left side is) then we will climb Formidable as a backup.
