  • Strenuous
  • Challenging
  • Mileage: 3.7 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 1,000 ft
  • Pace: 2.0-3.0 mph

Meeting time TBD.  We'll carpool from the campground to keep cars to a minimum.  Post-hike meal in Marblemount.

Here's the WTA description (note distances seem to vary between 12 and 14 miles, but at 4000 feet of gain, you'll get a good workout regardless).  And if you're dying for more, we may exceed expectations by adding to this and going down down down to Doubtful Lake and back up up up (doubtful as the name implies, but what the group wants, the group gets).
