Trip description continued:
If you haven't planned your day pack, please remember that it's still early season and it's windy up there. Please pack properly: https://www.rei.com/learn/expert-advice/day-hiking-checklist.html#Day_Hikes_2_Plus_Hours

Be sure to pack enough food and water for the hike. I'll ask at the trailhead as to what you've packed. Please, no jeans or sneakers - it's rocky at the top, so do come prepared with cold-weather gear.

For those who are carpooling, please ensure that your profile is up to date and your phone # on the website is correct. Please arrive on time at the meeting point.

We're going to meet at the trailhead - where there's restrooms.
For the non-carpoolers, please be at the trailhead around 9am. We'll take a quick break, gear-check, water station fill-up and get going.

Depending on how people are feeling, we'll stop for food and drink on the way back.
