Description:

Leave town at ~6pm on Friday night, drive to Thielsen trailhead and spend the night. Saturday morning we'll have a quick breakfast and begin our climb at 5am, hike up the Mt. Thielsen trail until we reach the PCT, where we'll take off on the climbers trail. Once we reach Chicken ledge, we'll set up a fixed line for all to ascend. We may set up a rapell for our descent. We'll retrace our steps back down the trail to the trailhead and head home Saturday evening. I expect the climb will take ~10 hours car to car.
