[This photo from Robyn Smith]Route: Sign in and depart from Pole Creek Trailhead (5200’). Following the Pole Creek Trail, hike 1.4 miles to the Green Lakes Trail (5840’). Turn South for 1.6 miles to the Chambers Lake trail (5740’), and turn Southwest on the Chambers Lake Trail for approximately 1.8 miles (6280’).
Ascend cross country to an area at the toe of the Hayden Glacier where we will camp. With a 5:00 am wake up call we can have breakfast and prepare for our 6:00 am departure. 
We will then follow the Moraine west to the saddle just below the North ridge, then continuing up the ridge, arriving at the Summit around 10:30 am (10047’).
After a half hour photo shoot, we will retraced our steps back to camp where we will relax and casually break camp for a 2:00 pm departure.
