You will not be moved to the "going" list without providing a signed waiver to the email address on the waiver.

If you have already provided a waiver to me, you do not need to provide another one.

AND

• You must have done one of my Tier 3 or higher hikes with me OR have a "Scrambling Skills" pin from a VegasHikers Organizer.

HIKE DESCRIPTION

This is another special, once per year route that I put together for Janie's birthday. She has some favorite obstacles that I'm including. It includes the backstroke slot, the sliding slot, the drain, the trash compactor, the squeeze, a rarely used down route, and more.

Not for beginners or those afraid of heights. There are many places that require advanced scrambling skills on this hike and there is some exposure as well. It requires experience and technique. You must be able to lift yourself up and lower yourself down using your arms.

• Helmets are always welcome. Be sure to use one that doesn't block your sight.

• Always carry "in case of emergency" numbers with you.

• No guests will be allowed on this hike.

To prevent crashing, the meeting location will be sent via text or message only to people who are going.
