| We will drive from Seattle to the "Tilly Jane Sno Park", which is right next to a small ski area ("Cooper Spur Ski and Tubing"). Via I-5/84/35 this is about 250 miles, 4h15m. Going I-5/26 (south around Mt Hood instead of northern route along Columbia River) is roughly the same distance and time (a bit shorter but slower). Trailhead is at 4900ft. | | We will drive from Seattle to the "Tilly Jane Sno Park", which is right next to a small ski area ("Cooper Spur Ski and Tubing").

| Planning to drive down Sunday morning, park, then hike/skin in. On Thursday morning, ski down to the car and drive home. Nadya is going home on Tuesday. Some folks may bail earlier in the week.

| The 2.7mile trail, up 1992ft to the cabin. Will need to haul pretty much everything up, unless somebody wants to do a day hike back down. Maybe we can haul stuff in a sled? Not clear how direct (vs. side gradient) trail is. | | The 2.7mile trail, up (TODO)ft to the cabin. Will need to haul pretty much everything up, unless somebody wants to do a day hike back down.

| === Post-trip notes ===
| |
| * We brought too much food! 2 loaves of bread should be enough for 3.5 days for 5-6 people? Maybe 10 hot chocolate is enough. Less oatmeal.
| |
| * At this altitude, some didn't have as much appetite.
| |
| * Bring more jerky next time.
| |
| * 8 curry roux is enough for 5 people.
| |
| * Freeze dried veggies are faster to cook.
| |
| * Took about 40 minutes to go up to the tree line ridge and about 10 minutes to come back to the hut.
| |
| * The trail after the burnt forest area is narrow and can be tricky to go down.
| |
| * Ending the downhill run at the ski resort is great.
| |
| * More blister patches.
| |
| * Firestarters are helpful.
