Mission Peak Overnight/Summit Sunrise


Past Event

Super cool one night short distance (but quite a bit of elevation gain) backpacking trip to Eagle Spring backpacking camp (pending reservation), which is just below Mission Peak summit (0.4 mile hike).

The plan is to start at Stanford Avenue trailhead and take our time to hike the 2.7 miles to Eagle Spring Camp (200ft of elevation gain). Have dinner. Hike to the summit to watch the sunset.
Get up before dawn on Sunday and hike to the summit again to watch the sunrise. Strike camp and return to the trailhead for pickup.

We can’t park at the trailhead so drop-off/pick-up is required (but it’s only 35 minutes from FC library to the trailhead).

Note that we can’t attempt to make the reservation until early November so plans may change, but we’ll find something equally cool if needed.

Backpacking trip so use the backpacking packing list here:
