Traversed to Koip from Parker on my way to Kuna.
Found a reasonably nice use trail on the south side of the Koip Pass facing slope which lasted until the base of the snowfield

Pics/commentary here.

Mono Pass Trailhead to Parker Pass to Koip Peak Pass to Koip Peak. Mellow dayhike almost all on trail; it would be hard to get lost on this one. Beautiful country! Alternate peak for day 2 of SC2011

Hiked to Parker Lake from the trailhead with spotty snow cover. Alternated skinning and booting the rest of the way to the summit. Great view from the top, horrible skiing on the way down, apart from a couple of shortish pitches. Loads of ice and windboard. 8hrs round trip.

A two day trip, pitched camp just over Parker Pass and summitted Koip and Kuna on day one, not much snow to contend with- no axe, or crampons involved.

Hiked up from Parker Lake TH. X-country once past the lake. By-passed the waterfall cliff on the far left (south) side. Lots of steep scree. Camped near where Parker Pass trail crosses Parker Creek. Climbed up canyon to Kuna Glacier and climbed Koip from there. From Koip, continued over Parker Peak and Mt. Wood. Descended east face of Wood to get back to TH.

Nice dayhike. Lots of flowers. There were clouds, but they never really turned into anything. Climbed with Parker, Wood, and Kuna.

Amazing views, will post pics later. Routefinding during ascent was challenging, as was descending the 'use' trail we discovered later.

Peak BaguetteRoute: Mono TH to East slope, Date: 07.22.07  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jul 22, 2007

Peak Baguette

I loved dancing around Dana Meadows on the hike in, but be warned: there's not a lot of shade on the approach so wear sunscreen (otherwise you'll be sporting the lobster/beet look like I am today). Someone placed a register earlier in July and I added a second one as well, so now there are two little memo books in the ammo box. mpbro's waypoints & TR were very helpful in navigating the occasionally ambiguous trail.

The middle summit of a long dayhike out of Mono Pass TH. Kuna was my favorite, but this one was all right too. Still no log book.

petehMissing log book...  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Jun 16, 2007
An entertaining dayhike with nice views from the top. I also recommend checking out the remnants of the crashed (WWII?) plane on the ridge between Kuna and Koip!

It seems that while the ammunition container which previously contained the log book is still on the top of Koip, the log book itself is missing. If you're thinking about doing this hike, perhaps you would consider carrying an exercise book and pen up there to replace the ones that have gone missing?

Beautiful views of Ritter/Banner, Lyell and many Yosemite peaks. Camped at Parker Pass. Climbed Gibbs next day. Wish we had bagged Kuna, too. This was an SPS trip. See pictures at http://community.webshots.com/user/langenbacher .
