Meet at the main trail at 7:15, ready to hike at 7:30. Discover Pass required.

We'll do  a loop up the main Si trail, over to Teneriffe  via the Si-Teneriffe connector and back down to the trailhead via Talus Loop. There is still currently a little snow/ice heading up the main Si trail and lots of snow on the Si-Teneriffe connector and the Mount Teneriffe  trail. Bring micro spikes and poles. If  conditions are sketchy, we'll stick with an out-and-back on the main trail.

COVID-19: Following the Mountaineer’s protocol all hikers are required to have face masks and hand sanitizer.  Masks must be worn at the trailhead, when passing other hikers or being passed, and any time social distance of at least 6ft cannot be maintained.
