CHS 2 Hike

Field trip: Conditioning Hiking Series

CHS 2 Hike - Cispus Pass

CHS 2 GRADUATION HIKE! - CHS hike led at a CHS 2 pace (2.0-2.5mph). An out and back hike in the Goat Rocks, to popular Snowgrass Flat and then along the Pacific Crest Trail to lovely but less visited Cispus Pass via Cispus Basin.

  • Strenuous
  • Challenging
  • Mileage: 17.0 mi
  • Elevation Gain: 4,500 ft
  • Pace: 2-3 MPH

TBD*

*We will recommend hikers stay near the trailhead the night before the hike, as it's a 3-hour drive from Seattle and we'll be getting an early start.  We will likely organize some group lodging option availalble on a first-come-first-served basis for those wanting comfy, non-campground slumber (with an associated cost).
