This is a strenuous hike, similar to Mt. Si in terms of distance and elevation, but the rail is rougher with more rocks and can be brushy in places.   The upper section can be buggy, so suggest bringing repellant and maybe a head net.  On the plus side, we probably won't see a lot of other hikers!

We will meet at the Mt. Washington trailhead at 8am, and start hiking by 8:15am.  Trailhead is just off Exit 38 on I-90.
