## Logistics

We're experimenting with a new app! Please feel free to give it a try, but this is not mandatory.
Please see the link here

Please commit to your RSVP, as space is limited. If you can't make it, please change your RSVP ASAP.

Everyone will go to the waitlist by default, and I will add riders as drivers become available. It is your responsibility to check your waitlist status, and to remove yourself from the waitlist if you can no longer attend. The total cap is 12 people. Please answer all RSVP questions so I can get accurate headcounts for each location.

  • Drivers, please comment that you are driving and how many you can take, as well as your meeting point (Green Lake P&R or a sensible East Side P&R)
  • Riders, please reply to these comments if you'd like to join a driver.
  • Eastsiders are free to self-organize a carpool (Eastgate or Ash Way are popular P&R options) and meet us at the coffee shop
  • Please avoid going directly to the TH, as this can often lead to us missing each other.
  • A WhatsApp chat will be posted at least the day before. Please join this ASAP only if on the going list so we can coordinate on the day of.

Gas will be $15 per person for a car of 4. Be sure to pay your drivers ASAP before or during the trip!

## Details

Name: Pratt Lake Trail

Links: AllTrails ( Talapus and Olallie version )
WTA

Distance: 12mi

Elevation: 3200ft

## Notes

  • I'd like to take the Talapus + Olallie Lakes route, but this depends on conditions since it involves several miles of trail road that may be damaged or blocked. This would be about 0.5mi and 500ft less than the Pratt Lake Trail itself.
  • It is winter. All of the following are required: Warm layers with NO COTTON, waterproof gaiters or mountaineering/ski/rain pants, warm waterproof shoes that won't let snow in, snowshoes (rentable from REI, or cheap at Costco), spikes. Poles optional but highly recommended.
