LONE PEAK

Slow hike up to Lone Peak summit. First time from Orson Smith trailhead. Started on Cherry Canyon trail, got a bit lost and I think we got on the Draper Ridge Trail, then possibly off trail again and finally to the north ridge to the summit. Knee-deep snow and ice made the last section difficult but the scramble to the summit with the snow and ice was REALLY sketchy. Probably should have turned back. Great day.

Thanks for posting the pics, Kendall. What great scenery!

Thanks Andrea/Tom K!!

Super, super pretty. I'm glad you guys made it a safe adventure. Nice recovery, too.

From Kendall on Fri, Oct 25, 2013 at 11:16:37 from 208.187.252.10

Thanks Neasts! We should have bailed. Matt declined to summit and I probably should have--not safe with the ice up top. Hope the group today is careful.

Great pics. I was going to do Timp on Sunday, but this might make me reconsider.

From Kendall on Fri, Oct 25, 2013 at 11:33:57 from 208.187.252.10

Hey Scott. I think you'd be fine on Timp. As you know, it doesn't have the same exposure as LP and with its southern exposure may not be much snow. + you're a mountain goat used to that sort of thing.

From Scott Wesemann on Fri, Oct 25, 2013 at 12:13:01 from 66.232.64.4

What I meant by that is the pics make me want to get up LP. :) So awesome up there.

From Kendall on Fri, Oct 25, 2013 at 12:20:25 from 208.187.252.10

Oh, I thought you got scared :)

Wow...I should know better. OF COURSE you want to go the more adventurous, life-threatening route. Either should be great. What weather we're having!...go get some!

Awesome photos. Lone Peak is one of my favorites.

Scott... If you change plans and do LP Sun I'm in! :)
