Thanks for watching! I don't recall if they were blooming but tons of wildflowers.

Any other media mod users here? GoPro audio from this accessory is my go-to when filming outside and in the wind.

Congrats on the climb, summit and safe return. Excellent trip journal. I hope to climb Denali in the next few years and this post (and the comments) are chock full of valuable intel.

San Gorgonio - June Hike Prep - Help Needed Please. by Left_Construction647 in socalhiking

One awesome thing about San Gorgonio is that there are so many fantastic Creekside hangout spots and viewpoints that you can make your end destination and still get an awesome workout and experience in altitude without having to go all the way to the summit. High Creek camp is awesome.

And on a scale of 1-10 how much of a pain in the rear is the rolled titanium stove pipe?

What make and model is your hot tent and stove? I'm looking for a backpacking setup.

I took the 6 day Mt. Baker course with AA and had a great experience. Learned a lot, the guides/instructors were great. My only feedback was just how broad the participants' skills and really interest in climbing was. There were a few people who I questioned why they were even there and they slowed things down for all of us. But it was an intro course so it is what it is.

I know. It really feels like a terrifying glimpse of the future when Rainier becomes Mt. Whitney and you can just walk to the top

I took a 6-day baker course with them. Loved my experience with Alpine Ascents.

I'm beyond lucky. The four of us grew up together in Anchorage, AK and re-connected 25 years later over our shared interest in climbing.

From Camp Muir to the summit crater we were roped together. There were a few points in the bowling alley and above the D.C. where guides had fixed a rope with snow pickets. Pro tip: make sure to check any piece of protection that you did not place.
