Event comments
Trailhead parking areas can sometimes fill to capacity from mid-morning to early afternoon during the summer season, resulting in parking along the roadway. If you want to park within the parking area, plan to arrive earlier or later in the day. Registration is open 8 AM - Noon, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Registration at the Cle Elum Hardware Store is about 1 hour from the trailheads. Participants can choose to register, obtain map and directions, and stamp books for all the hikes at one time. We hope this registration schedule will provide the most flexibility to our participants, as well as to give our volunteers a chance to meet you on the trails! More Great Local Walking Opportunities: Central Washington Sun Striders offers 24 scenic walks in the surrounding counties, 10 of the walks are within an hour of Cle Elum. For details check ava.org, then click Event Search Club/Search by state or club name/Washington/Central Washington Sun Striders. Free participants are welcome but all must register. For those who volksmarch for awards, a unique Four-Plus Foolhardy Folks 100% embroidered patch, designed by Dorman Batson, will be available for $11.00.

Event information
A jaw-dropping, in-your-face view of magnificent Mount Stuart is just one of the rewards experienced on this trail. The steady climb will also delight the spirit as one transitions from a cool pine and larch forest to beautiful rock-filled wildflower meadows. After less than a 1 km steep start, the well maintained trail continues, with most of the elevation increase achieved along moderately steep switchbacks, to gain 2100 ft over 5 kilometers. Total elevation gain 2300 ft.
Awards: 'A' Award available
