CWesselsMay Lake and Off-Trail  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Aug 4, 2009

From SW edge of May Lake, we ditched the trail and scrambled straight up toward the two unnamed(?) granite formations below the saddle. Mostly Class 2; though, I summited the left formation which involved some Class 3.

GosiaSkorekSE scramble  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Aug 15, 2009

We scrambled up the SE slopes, first traversed some slabby rock and then approx. 200m of class 2-3 scrambling accompanied at all times by the amazing views of May and Tenaya Lake as well beautiful ranges! This was a much more rewarding and interesting route than the standard use trail up the S face. Fun route finding and no people, just marmots.

rhyangSouth slope .. sort of  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Aug 1, 2009

Dayhiked from May Lake TH. Skipped the main trail initially and came up a gully in between the east face and approach face (as noted in Secor), looking for technical routes. The East Face (5.7) looked good.

Hoffmann's Thumb looked intriguing .. seems to be a class 4 route on the NE side, and the Regular Route (5.6) might be fun .. saw what looked like a rap anchor up top ..

Date Climbed: Jun 27, 2009

Hiked up here on Saturday! Seemed longer / took longer than expected, but kicked back and enjoyed awesome weather. Several snowfields still, but none were treacherous. Overall pretty easy hike, with a fun scramble at the end.

Great views on Hoffmann, even if you don't make it all the way up. Can see most of the major ranges of the park from the top. Great place to eye up the next objective!

Date Climbed: Jun 20, 2009

Altitude or something whupped my ass, it took me 3:10 to top out. Dizzy and lurching due to something, but I did it and made it back. Two other hikers today, with clouds and interesting light. Glad to be back to the high peaks for 2009.

Planned a Solo from May Lake. Turned around on the first day due to whiteout and high wind. Clear sky on the 13th.

Date Climbed: Jun 25, 2006

Snow lower down meant a long walk in from the Tioga Road. After that crampons made short work of the main climb!

Luciano136Standard and NE ridge combo  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Sep 28, 2008

Took the May Lake trail but didn't notice the faint use trail going to the bottom of the summit slabs. I opted to pick up the ridge instead as I thought it would be an easier route; turned out to be a class 3 scramble; quite exciting with the huge drop off on your right. Didn't expect too much but this was a very worthy peak! First on top for the day.

The views were a little hazy and clouds were blasting by, but I didn't see a soul after leaving May Lake.

Little snowy after May Lake, there is a "sharp" left that we missed ... but very accessible peak. Great views and blue ice in the northside valley.

We had a pleasant short hike and then were chased off of the peak by rain, hail and lightning.

Climbed from valley floor up North dome gully. Washington column, Indian Rock, camped on Mt Watkins. Then up Hoffmann Sunday, and out.

Tioga road not open yet, so had it all to myself.

BrendanHickeyShort hike that seemed longer
Date Climbed: Aug 24, 2007

This hike was short in terms of distance, but went slowly because of the occasionally faint trail and frequent rock-hopping. Needed to use hands for the last 20 feet.
