Comments: Pinnacle 2,558', Sawyer Hill


Mostly smooth, dry trail all the way past Winturri Shelter up to the top Of Sawyer Hill and Pinnacle. Great mud season hike. Only saw a tiny bit of snow at the highest part. Backtracked from there, nice break at the shelter, a very fast trail with rolling up/downs all the way. Hadn't hiked this piece since April "97, love the pastoral scenery, like going back to the 1800's- or 1700's.
