SUMMARY:N Fork Entiat – Pyramid loop (BP-2)
DESCRIPTION:\n\n\nTrip Name\nN Fork Entiat – Pyramid loop (BP-2)\n\n\nTrip Start Date\nAugust 8, 2024\n\n\nType of Trip\nBackpack\n\n\nRating\nBP-2\n\n\nLeader Name\nSteve Ghan\n\n\nLeader Email\nsteven.ghan@gmail.com\n\n\nRoundtrip Drive Mileage\n370\n\n\nCarpooling Cost\n$40\n\n\nAdditional Fees\n0\n\n\nTrip Description\nThe North Fork Entiat River watershed offers lovely walking along the Chelan Mountains, sampling larch-studded basins below granite peaks. This is a four-day trip, making the four drive worth the time and carbon emissions.\nWe’ll camp the first night at Fern Lake junction, in a splendid trail crew camp on the river, after gaining 1500’ in six miles of walking.\nOn the second day, we’ll gain 1400’ rather steeply in two miles to a camp at 6600’ elevation in a lovely alpine garden surrounded by larches; there will be an option to day hike two miles through meadows and larches to 7500’ Saska Pass.\nOn day three, we’ll gain 1000’ in 3.3 miles traversing Cardinal Peak to Buck Camp, featuring a large table and benches around a fireplace, also at 6600’.\nThe fourth day is an easy descent to the trailhead in six miles, and the drive home. This is not wilderness, so mountain bikes might be encountered.\n\n\nApproximate Mileage\n17 mi in 4 days\n\n\nElevation Gain\n4000 ft in 4 days\n\n\nDeparture Time\n8:00 AM\n\n\nSign up by\nAugust 4, 2024\n\n\n\nEach participant is responsible for their own safety and being prepared. PLANNING ( https://www.nps.gov/orgs/1207/plan-like-a-park-ranger.htm ) and preparation start with the 10 ESSENTIALS ( #ten-essentials-popup ) and staying up-to-date on road and trail conditions, permit requirements, party size limits, snowpack, wildfires, and weather.  Visit the ACTIVITY CLASSIFICATION PAGE ( #activity-classification-popup )  for detailed information on difficulty rating for I-MAC trip so you can sign up for activities that best match your fitness and comfort levels.\nVisit TRIP COSTS &amp; PASSES ( #trip-costs-passes-popup ) for detailed information about trip costs.\nTo help protect and care for these special places that we enjoy exploring, I-MAC members always practice LEAVE NO TRACE ( https://lnt.org/ ) and follow the 7 PRINCIPLES OF LEAVE NO TRACE ( https://lnt.org/why/7-principles/ ). Ask your trip leader if you have questions about Leave No Trace or suggestions for helping to reduce our footprint.\n
