 | Comments: |
Hiked up Pinnacle Tr. and down Pinnacle Meadows Tr.. Pinnacle Meadows much drier because of terrain and lack of brook nearby. Most traffic I've seen here since helping out on a school hike several years ago. 70+ met with at least a dozen on top while up there. I'm used to "summit to myself" on late week day hikes but this is probably the norm on summer weekends. |
