Please don't sign up if you don't know the ski hut trail. We will be going at a fast pace to catch the sunset. There will be no sweep and no waiting for stragglers. ALSO, we will be coming down in the dark SO BRING YOUR HEADLAMP!

Here are a couple photos I took back in May on another midweek hike.

~ Hike Length: 9 miles round trip

The Hike: We will start at Manker Flats, take a 30 second break at the ski hut, continue up to the summit, enjoy the sunset (about 7:22 pm), and return back the same way in the dark.

Bring: At least 2 liters of water, snacks, sturdy shoes with good traction, layers, sunglasses, daypack, and the Ten Essentials. Please check the weather right before the hike so you can dress appropriately. All of my hikes are RAIN, SNOW, SLEET, FOG, HAIL, FROGS, or SHINE.
