Mount Gleason and Summit 6,020′
Back in the LA Basin after our first stint on the John Muir Trail in the Sierra Nevada, I activate two summits on a hot morning to stay in shape.
Mount Hooper
By far the most challenging SOTA activation to date is part of a five day backpack trip kicking off our attempt of the entire John Muir Trail
Peak 9,691′
A warm-up hike for the John Muir Trail leads me to activate summit 9,691′ for the first time
Mount San Antonio
On the Fourth of July Weekend my old climbing buddy, Greg Jones and I get in a bodacious conditioning run up a steep trail before joining the old crew on the John Muir Trail next week.
