Itinerary:
Let's assume that the weather will be fantastic for the next full moon and we can have a full moon scramble! The objective is Midnight Peak which is classed as an easy scramble, hiking up to Baldy Pass and then up the East slope of Midnight. There is an elevation gain of 944m. We'll meet at Our Lady of the Assumption at 5:30 pm and leave as quickly as possible for the scramble. The pace we'll be doing will be relaxed, and the round trip time will be approximately 5 hours - depends how long we stay on the summit taking in the views. You don't need to be super fit, or experienced, this will be a friendly trip. Headlamps and helmets are absolutely mandatory. We will be descending in the dark, you should understand what that means and be comfortable with the increased commitment level. If you have any questions at all, just send us an email. We'll be getting back very late - if you have a strict bed time, this isn't for you. These trips run on a principle of group collaboration. Everyone is expected to be involved in decision making and safety of the party. Dogs are very welcome on the trip and K2 the laziest Husky in the world will be coming. Please check the objective to be sure that your dog is up for the evening and email us with any questions or concerns.
Required Items to Bring:
Headlamp, spare batteries, helmet, snacks & water

Extra headlamp, trekking poles, up beat attitude
