Description:
We'll be meeting at South Eugene High School, near 19th & Patterson with plans to leave AT 4:00 AM. If you sign up after 8/24: please email me directly at Kimberly.vanwinkle@gmail.com, subject: south sister.
We'll start from Devil's Lake trailhead; 6 miles each direction; trail starts in hemlock forest, transitions to an open plain, and then rock: be prepared for lots of sun exposure. With some flatter sections mixed in, overall the trail gets progressively steeper and looser: sturdy hiking boots with gaiters are required, trekking poles are a good idea. While not a technical climb, it is a challenging hike at times on loose rock and some mild exposure in the last mile to the false summit. There are plenty of places to hang out for a picnic and to rest at the top better fore heading back to the car(s). We'll stay within sight of one another with planned spots where we will all regroup.
