So here are at least 15
trips from GPS logs.

The most recent,
Dec 10, 2022, with
Michelle, on a cold day.
This was also the 1st
route I took 20 years
before, from the SW.

Valerie and Steve Nguyen
at chimney, Nov 16, 2002.
Few cairns, strange
BW instructions.
|
We were correct in
surmising this was
summit block; but BW
instructions became
inscrutable, and cairns
disappeared.
|
Val below, as I return
from climbing a bunch
of minor summits, where
I actually did find cairns.
We bailed because
it would be dark in 3 hrs.
|
On Mar 3, 2003,
I joined a Sierra
Club trip. I knew
the way, but the SC
got lost. Donnie B
followed me, and
spotted them down
at 2nd notch.
