Field trip: Conditioning Hiking Series
CHS 2 Hike - Umtanum Ridge
Great Hike in Eastern Washington. Less chance of precipitation and more chance of some sunshine over there. This hike has a little more elevation gain than called for but it will mainly be on the last push to the Ridge and we'll be taking it easy up that last stretch. CHS hike led at a CHS 2 pace (2.0-3.0 mph)
