Welcome to CHS 2024, everyone!  We will be altering this hike from the main West Tiger 3 route to meet the CHS April distance and elevation gain expectations.  As such, we will start up the main West Tiger 3 trail, but a bit before we reach the summit we will divert east on the Railroad Grade trail and take that to where it intersects the Tiger Mountain Trail.  We'll then take the TMT back to the trailhead. Totals are 7.2 miles and 2000 ft of elevation gain.
