This is a pacing hike for CHS 1 with a mid-morning meal break at Lizard Lake.  

During the hike, we will also briefly test out a pace above 2 mph so participants have a comparison between the two CHS pacing groups. 

Meet at the Blanchard mountain Trail Upper Parking lot at 8 a.m.

Parking pass needed: Discover Pass 

The parking lot is up a forest road. There is a junction that could lead you the wrong way, so be sure to pay attention to the signs. Be sure to go to the upper parking lot and not the lower, and Do NOT take the road to the Samish Overlook!
