Lessons in perspective
Everything looks so much closer than it really is while going up this peak! Beautiful, cold and very windy at times. The route as described on the main page ended up being 3.7 miles and 2,164' of gain. Nice views all the way up!

A reason to go to Kern River Brewing Company
A nice hike up to one of the few HPS Peaks I have left in the area. Beautiful day, no wind. Quite a bit warmer than I expected to be honest. Great views. Went to KRBC as a reward.

Standard route
First warm-up peak on the way up to the 2012 Sierra Challenge. The heat even at 9AM made me cancel my plans for more southern Sierra peaks and move a bit further north.

Sandy
Took the wide ridge up which was pretty sandy for the 1st half. As the angle lessened, so did the sand, and the enjoyment level. Nice views from the summit.
