A short and steep conditioning hike on a real climbers' trail.  A nice view of the Skykomish Valley and the town of Index from the end of the trail.

If you have never hiked this trail, don't get crazy with your training weight.  If you have hiked here, bring a training weight that will allow you to get to the top in an hour to an hour and 15 minutes.  

We will meet at the top for a group photo and then head back down before it gets too dark.  Bring a headlamp.
