If we've climbed together or you've been on my conditioning hikes before, you have permission to sign up! All others, please request permission and let me know what other hikes you've done recently.
The primary goal for the hike is to get a check on fitness and set expectations for the minimum fitness requirements for successful trips with the Basic Alpine Course.
An email regarding trip logistics will be sent out 5-7 days prior to the trip. Pack weight and mountaineering boots are optional. Dress as appropriate for the weather.
Meet at the trailhead at 8am and be ready to go at 8:15am. We will hike up at your own pace, but we will travel together as a group coming back down on Mt Si Main Trail.

Required Equipment
In addition to your 10 Essentials, you'll need microspikes, along with a headlamp and extra batteries. Weighted packs and mountaineering boots are optional, but a good idea to help you gauge your fitness and break in your boots.
