Hey would you guys mind having one more in the team? I have class on the 14th until about 12:30 and I think it's about a 3.5 hour drive from where I'm at (Yakima), so I could definitly meet up around 5:30.
Matt- I have an extra backpack you can use if you need a bigger pack. Its a little older Dana Designs bag, but its got tons of room and I think it's pretty confortable. I've used it on a few winter overnights. As far as weather goes it sounds like a typical Cascades plan.... Just show up and see what the weather delivers! If it gets too bad we can always turn around.
