This will be a day trip to Picnic rock at Exit 32 to practice rappel skills.  Priority to Ayer SIG, then open to any other students after Jan 29.

We will hike about half a mile to picnic rock, where we will practice rappelling and ascending.  We will wrap up by 3pm at the latest, but likely earlier. 

A little rain will be fine, but if the weather is awful or we have high winds, this activity will be cancelled.

7:30 AM (ready to hike) at the Little Si trailhead
