I'll try to get there Friday afternoon and will leave Sunday afternoon/evening. Anyone have ham, FRS, or GMRS radios?

It will be a late charge again for me. I get off of a 12 hour night shift at 0730 that morning. 1 night, 2 nights, either works for me, wont have to go back to work until the Friday after.

I'm stoked! Same with my wife. Dogs ok? Kids? The dog is more behaved than the kid (he is is 13). If not, he has no objections to "become one with the couch".
Here is the .gpx tracks for the forest service roads in the mt Baker Snoqualmie national Forest. Includes the roads leading to where the campsite will be.

Yes, all of the above, and CB. Half looking for an easy summit for a possible SOTA activation, not an absolute, but I am thinking about it.

I'm excited about this one! I might not make it out until Saturday because of work. For us arriving late what channels are we running for either CB/GMRS/FRS/HAM?
I saw cb channel 5 somewhere but I can't find where I saw it. I wonder if we all should be using the official OLB com channels

That sounds like a good idea to me. I didn't even know we had one of those.

I think the channel (CB5) is mentioned on the rally point page. It also looks like 146.46 is the accepted ham 2 meter simplex frequency, found this in the bootcamp page. And for reference, the first post from that page.

And if you don't yet have your Ham license you can still use the MURS frequencies.
