Friday’s work addressed that in part, with more work to come. Overall, it proved to be a great day in the woods making one of our premier campsites a better place for future visitors.

Happy National Mule Day! We’re grateful for the hardworking mules that support the Forest Service. These sure-footed partners haul gear, assist fire crews, and help preserve true wilderness experiences where modern technology can’t reach.

Let someone know where you’re going and when, and at what time you expect to be off the mountain. That way, authorities can be alerted more quickly if you are overdue.

Have a turnaround time and stick to it. If you are unable to reach the summit by noon, turn around. Climbing the mountain in dusk and nighttime conditions is not advised.

Be prepared for overnighting on the mountain. Circumstances may force you to spend the night on the mountain. Rescues take hours, and sometimes days. Have clothing and shelter available for an overnight stay, and enough food and water to last until help arrives.
