day hike - black mt via emigration canyon - October 25, 2026

It is possible to hike to Black Mt (8255 ft) from the Avenue side or the Emigration Canyon side. But we plan to go there from the Emigration Canyon side. I have hiked this route solo close to the summit but did not go to the summit. Approximately 9 miles RT with 2000 ft gain. There are steep sections. There is no trail for the last one mile. Please bring 10 essentials. Please email before Friday, 6 pm, Oct 23, for the meeting place and time. Registration is required. Registration priority will be given to WMC members. Registrants will receive more detailed info. Limit 8.
