This is a climbing conditioner for the Chris/Daryl SIG. We'll aim for an uphill speed of 1.7-2.2 mph depending on the group. Since it is still early in the season, weighted backpacks are not necessary. There is likely icy conditions towards the top, so please bring microspikes and poles.
8:30 am at the trailhead
