Mailbox Peak trailhead parking lot, 7:45 am.  Boots a-walking at 8 am.  We'll do the famous old trail up and down.

This is one of the more strenuous climbs in the local area, so it is expected that you have already been doing regular training efforts with increasing weight. 

We will go for a steady pace that keeps the group together, trying to minimize stops and downtime.
