Date of hike: August 3, 2024
Meeting time: 7:50am
Join Ed Robb and Stephanie Lenkey at Kenosha Pass East for a lovely late Summer hike at 10,000'. It’ll be about 3 miles and 200' vertical, along a dirt road that goes to summer cabins. We’ll meet at the Morrison Park and Ride parking lot then carpool to the Pass. Plan to chip in $5 to your driver for gas. Make sure you have plenty of fluids to drink, bring a snack and we’ll stop at the turn-around spot to rest and refresh. Also, it should be cooler as we will be at 10,000' again, so bring appropriate outer wear.

It’s the northwest corner of C470 and Morrison Road. Take C470 to Morrison Road exit. Go west about 200' to Rooney Road and turn right.
