Itinerary:

I did this hike a few years ago, but it's been so long that I will classify it as "exploratory" for me this time around. It is technically considered a scramble, but there is nothing particularly technical about it. There may still be some snow up there. So - we'll only go as far as everyone in the group feels comfortable in going. We may or may not venture out on the ridge for a short while. On the way back we have the option to take a side-trip to Upper Rowe Lakes (1.2 km, 140m). This distance/elevation is included in the numbers above. Changed to Rowe Lakes based on participant interest.

Bear spray, icers, lunch, water, layers
