Is anyone interested in doing Mt San Jacinto either the weekend of March 11-12 or 18-19? It would be a daytrip. It is dependent upon the weather as we are...
I am planning on leaving the trailhead at Humber Park. I am planning on doing it now in April. It would be one of the weekends that my son would be with...
Aletha - Yes, weather looks bad for this weekend for San Jacinto. I might take the tram up and wander around up there anyway - I have a pair of mountaineering...
... and quite possibly hike Gorgonio also that same weekend. I know Parisa is for sure planning on coming and if anyone else from the Bay Area is interested...
Here on the Monterey Coast we're supposed to get snow at the 500 to 1000 foot level! Winter is holding out just a bit longer! I wonder with all this cool...
Here is a neat graph that was posted on summitpost earlier in the week. http://cdec.water.ca.gov/icons/PLOT_SWC.2006.gif Shows that most of the Sierras are...
I really, really doubt that we will need an ice ax or crampons but with the way the weather has been this year who knows. No snow at my elevation so far but...
Parisa: It's possible that you might need an ice axe and crampons in April - especially for San Gorgonio. It just depends on how much more snow we get and...
Thanks, Kathy. Is there anyone in the Bay area who might be interested in carpooling with me down south for this weekend extravaganza? -- Parisa ... From:...
15 inches of new snow and more on the way. So I decided go snowboarding this weekend instead of trying to find something to climb. I might try to hit up the...
I am planning on doing the Mountaineers Route on Whitney in mid-late july. My climbing partner has recently bailed on me and although I will still go by...
Only the second time this year I've gotten up to the Sierra. The primary purpose was to snowboard, but I managed to get some snowshoeing in to the Calaveras...
Does anyone know how limited the parking is at the Rock Creek Sno-Park Parking area? Do they plow the parking area? I'm headed up there on April 8th, so I'm...
They do plow part of the parking area. If the parking area is full and you're there overnight, you can park out on the street (that's what I ended up doing),...
Since someone was asking about this: I just heard that I now have a Mt. Whitney permit - so if you've applied you should be hearing soon. And if your credit...
A quick question, how easy would it be to arrange a "shuttle" between Whitney Portal and Horseshoe Meadow? What I'm thinking is leaving my car at one or the...
Sorry, not enough information...September 8th through September 11th, so would need the shuttle on September 7th or 8th. I would prefer to leave my car at...
My guess is that it wouldn't be too difficult, although I haven't actually done it. Both trailheads, especially Whitney, are popular. Christopher Randall...
Chris, I have a ride from Whitney Portal to Horseshoe Meadow a couple of years ago. It took about 10 minutes to get a ride in july and in the afternoon. Scott ...
I picked up a guy who had hitchiked down from Whitney Portal to the turnoff to the Horseshoe Meadows Trailhead and I took him on up to Horsehoe Meadows. This...
I got a day-permit for 06/01 (june 1). right in the middle of the week. I dont think i'll be using it :-( If u can use it then take it for a fair price. Its...
