Three Fingers Lookout Bike and Hike!

Details

This event is postponed until snow thaws from the ladders! I want this to be a scramble hike. This snow will be clear sometime in august-sept. When I get more beta, I'll change to an official date.

This hike requires a bike ride to the trailhead that lasts for ten miles. What makes this bike/ hike extra challenging is that you will have a backpack with 25-35 pounds of gear. The hike includes a scramble to the top, culminating in 360 views of the North Cascades. We can camp at the lookout!

Distance: approximately 33 miles round-trip with 20 miles on a bike
Elevation: 6,480 feet
Estimated time:

  • Car, bike to trailhead: 2 to 2.5 hours
  • Trailhead to lookout: 5 to 6 hours
  • Lookout to trailhead: 4 to 5 hours
  • Trailhead to car: 1 hour

Kit needed:

  • Backpack
  • Sleeping bag and mat
  • Helmet
  • Bug spray
  • Electrolyte mix
  • Bike rack or ability to fit your bike in your car
  • *I have a bike rack that can fit two bikes, so I can drive one person + a bike.
  • Deck of cards

At first you will be put on a waitlist and then added to the group by priority based on your experience level. By signing up to this hike you recognize that outdoor adventuring/mountaineering is inherently dangerous and you are solely responsible for your own preparation and safety.
