Activity Notes

The Starvation Ridge Trail is one of the most relentless hikes around: It climbs 3,800 feet in less than three miles. To make matters even more interesting, the climbing isn't consistent.

At the beginning, we will be rewarded by clifftop vistas from powerline pylon perches. Higher up, open talus slopes offer views to Mount Adams. We'll segue seamlessly with the Mitchell Point Trail and arrive at our destination - little Warren Lake with its several campsites.

<br> We will try to keep to a 2mph moving average overall. Breaks will every hour or so and kept short. A lunch stop will occur. Please consider your physical condition and previous recent hikes before accepting this hike. 

<br> This hike will occur in a designated wilderness area. We will thus be limited to a total of twelve hikers.

No guns, drugs or alcohol. No dogs. Please have the '10 essentials' and please no cotton close to the skin.
