Hike to Ice House Saddle

Hiking to Ice House Saddle by way of Ice House Canyon. This is a good hike for advanced beginners, seven miles R/T, with an elevations gain of 2600ft. The Saddle sits at about 7600ft, and allows you to sample some altitude if you haven't yet. If you haven't hiked this trail before then you should know the third mile into the hike is dedicated to switchbacks :-D so bring your poles if you use them.
We'll be breaking at the saddle before our return down so bring some snacks and your camera. You should also have, at minimum, two liters of water to drink on the hike.
If you have any questions, feel free to post them here.
Oh, hats and sunscreen are recommended and an Adventure Pass is required. I will get the wilderness permit.
