Frontcountry Trail Run - Poo Poo Point via Chirico Trail

Please note that the difficulty rating of this run is CHALLENGING due to the use of micro-spikes and the conditions. Be prepared for snow and ice.

Otherwise, hope to see you there!

Meeting Location: the Chirico Trail parking area.

Departure Objective: shoes on, talk accomplished, and feet to trail by  11:00 am.

Leader's notes

Goals:

1. - Build community and enjoy getting outside during the beautiful and temperate winters of the PNW.
2. - Our aim is to complete an approximate four mile loop, keeping an eye on the time and conditions. (I'm approximating a 1-1.5 hour run.) We'll be adjusting the run, as needed to account for terrain, conditions, and how everyone is doing.
3. - Be safe'ish-prepare snow. This should be a WINTER RUN (finally!). We'll be running slow, to account for this.

PACE:

I'm expecting a pace range between 14-20 minutes/mile on the way up and 10-15 minutes/mile. It's, more or less, single-track ascent all the way up and the reverse the way down.

TERRAIN:

This area of Tiger Mountain is well-traveled and generally single track + heavily wooded. There will be stops at the viewpoints and pictures will be had.
