Participant Information
I have reservations for 2 tent pads at Russet Lake on Aug 20.
Plan is to hike Singing Pass trail on Wednesday and set up camp. Head up Fissile if energy / time allow.
Thursday scramble to Whirlwind and Overlord, then return to cars.
I expect to bring ice axes and helmets, plus usual overnight camping gear.
