| Parking/Access Road Notes: |
Plenty of parking at Signal Ridge trailhead. A Sheriff followed us in (4 cars going up the road at 3pm, not suspicious at all), and after looping through the lot and heading up to Sawyer River/Pond trailhead, he returned and warned us to keep valuables out of sight or with us, as there had been break-ins in the area. Fair warning. |

Saving the pain for last, the Triple (3 seperate 4k's in a day) was in the books. Misty the whole way up, couldn't see the summit from Signal Ridge, cool and windy on the tower, off and on light rain on the way down. We were all pretty beat after this one, who saves the longest hike with the most elevation gain for last?! Thanks to Michael for organizing this one, and for Monica, John, Jim, and Brian for coming along for the ride! |
