This hike is intended for those already in shape and wish to maintain that conditioning over the winter. Please have some recent experience that will allow you to have fun on this hike.
This is how I like to lead hikes. I will be leading from the front so that I can control the pace to match the slowest hiker. I do ask us to stay together as a group, within speaking distance of each other. Our pace will be between 1.8 and 2.0 mph going uphill and up to 2.2 mph on the way down. I do hope all the hikers have selected a hike they can do comfortably.
We will start at the West Tiger TH. TH parking is at 47.52964, -121.99535.
This will be a morning hike. Timing will be shared with registered hikers one week before the hike.
