Priority to Basic Alpine Climbing students until 4/20. All others please wait to request permission until then. In your permission request, please let me know what other hikes you've done recently.

From the trailhead, we'll start on the Bullitt Fireplace trail at 6 p.m., connect with the Central Summit trail, then head to Squak Mountain Central Peak. Then we'll return the way we came, with the option to take a short detour to see the Bullitt Fireplace. Bring a pack weight of your choosing, something that will challenge you, but allow you to keep pace with the group. We'll keep a moderate/2.0 mph pace. Headlamps required. 

McCarthy-Johnson SIG and Foothills Basic Alpine Climbing students have permission to sign up.

Meet at the Mountainside Drive Trailhead  at 5:45pm and hit the trail at 6:00pm sharp.
