We will be targeting the typical 2-hour trailhead to summit pace. I will have a scale available to check off the weighted pack conditioner requirements for those who are interested.   While the goal is to be able to see a spectacular sunset and watch the full moon rise, this will be a rain or shine conditioner. 

We will plan to meet at the main Mt. Si Trailhead at 5:00 and have introductions and weigh packs for those needing conditioner credit. We will plan to begin the hike by 5:20 which will give everyone enough time to reach the summit in time for the sun to set at 7:38.
