| Michael's 4th peak bagged. We hiked farther than anticipated as we had to backtrack due to "aggressive yellow-jackets" on the Horse Trail. | |

| wfry | Wittenberg trail w/Scouts Date Climbed: May 22, 2008 | |
| Hiked this trail with a group of boy scouts. They all had a good time but were a little freaked out by all the trees on top. I think they were expecting an unobstructed view of the ocean. Anyway, we camped at Sky Camp and had a great time. | |

| Trawinski | My First "Mount" Date Climbed: Aug 17, 1984 | |
| Growing up at the eastern edge of West Marin, I frequented Point Reyes quite a bit since before I can remember. When I was old enough, my Dad took me to "Climb" Mount Whittenberg. I clearly remember thinking "MOUNT WHITTENBERG! Wow, it must be huge!" It was a good little hike for a 10-year old and the view from just below the summit was as awesome then as it is now. | |

| I lived/worked in the park as a biological science tech for a season. Consequently, I hiked the majority of the trails in the park, Wittenberg included. | |

| chrismarks | Great Foggy Day Date Climbed: Aug 3, 2010 | |
| Cruised on in via the sky trail to enjoy some of the lush forests socked in with the summer fog. Summit is hardly worth tagging but the slopes are a blast to explore: Trip Report: http://www.backcountrybliss.net/2010/08/sky-trail-point-reyes-national-seashore.html | |

| David Naylor | Macabre day at Sculptured Beach Date Climbed: Aug 25, 2007 | |
| The view does not exist from Mt. Wittenburg but certainly worth bagging if you are in the area. This was a 15 mile loop to take in the beaches....Arch Rock, Sculptured Beach etc. When we arrived at Sculptured Beach two kayakers ran up to us asking if we had cell phone reception. Turns out they had just found a dead man floating in the inlet nearby. Eventually park rangers came with horses to pull the corpse out of the water. Never found out what happened but was unfortunate and not what you'd expect to find while hiking Point Reyes. | |

| Jonodo | Mt. Wittenberg Trail Date Climbed: May 16, 2009 | |
| Nice but hot hike with the kids. It was a good workout carring a 3 yr old. Not much (read nothing) to see from the actual summit. There were lots of people out escaping the heat wave. The views from the saddle were good. Better views of Point Reyes can be had by taking the trail due south at the junction. | |
