Details will be forthcoming in an email to participants and instructors.  We will start hiking at 8:00 a.m., but  plan on arriving at least 20 minutes beforehand.

This trip starts off the scramble course with a moderately strenuous hike where we focus and practice all of the non-technical skills essential to scrambling. This trip serves as a gear and conditioning check, as well as an opportunity to introduce a few of the technical skills that will be thought later in the course.  There will also be an opportunity to simulate an emergency bivouac.
