IMPORTANT INFO

  • Trip Sheet
  • Parking: Northwest Forest Pass required to park. Part of the road has some decent sized potholes, but I’ve seen a Prius at the trailhead (not that I recommend a Prius drive up the road)
  • Carpool: link here
  • Weather: NOAA
  • Road Conditions: Traction tires advised. Road up to trailhead is known for having big potholes
  • Guests: If spots are still available one week prior to the trip, email Alvaro to request that a friend or sibling be able to join.
  • Land Acknowledgement:

    We will be recreating on the lands/waters of the Pacific Northwest Indian Tribes, including the Cayuse, Umatilla, Walla Walla, Snohomish, and Tulalip people who live here and steward these lands and waters as they have since time immemorial. The Seattle Mountaineers Youth Clubs encourage you to recreate mindfully and respectfully on our upcoming trip to these native lands
