Provided everyone's cool with the selected hike for the next epic, let's see what you all think about a start time

I'd personally like to see some darkness added to the epic, not just darkness while we gather and drink coffee and eat Todd's krispy cremes, but darkness on the hike.

So if it were up to me, we'd start in the dark, I mean really start in the dark, and perhaps hit a summit for sunrise, but that's just me...what do you think?

Good choice CK!
I'll read up on it, but I'm fairly sure I can join on this hike.

Why leave the party when we can BE the party? Mr. Green I say leave at 3 AM and bring champagne to toast the morning sunrise. OK...a cold brew will do too.

I guess the option of leaving at 10pm on the 31st should have been included....

Well, an overnight hike would not sit well with the Mrs. - so although I really like that idea, it's not practical for me. I'm all about the 3:00 start time.
