  • Mileage: 3.64 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 794 ft
  • Pace: 1.5 - 2 mph

We'll meet at the Harvey Manning Trailhead at 9:00 a.m. We'll hike along the Shangri La trail and do a figure-eight (on a map, our route looks like a slightly melted snowman laying on its side) by reconnecting to the Shangri La trail via the No Name and Surprise Green trails.

The goals for this outing are to have fun, learn things, & stay together as a group. For the first part of the hike, we will descend. On the second part of the trip, we will ascend, but do not worry—we will take plenty of breaks. Possible social afterward if folks are interested.
