| Woodzy | Re: 'Should have had ropes for that' | |
| On saw on the Mt. San Jacinto Message Board that someone set up something by throwing some webbing around the little horn and then easing out. Still wouldn't have done much but at least the fall would be less. | |

| Hmmm, interesting. I dont know anyone who used roped techniques for that thing. Rangers...they mean well guys...they really do ;) | |

| Climbed it coming from Yale peak, and then Harvard. A fun climb, and great views from the summit! The next time I went up there, the ranger told us that you "should have ropes for that". Hmmm. I survived! Great hike! | ||

| Fun climb/scrabble up the side of the peak. The last 20ft or so was a little nerve racking but all hold felt good and strong and easily supported my 280lb frame. The East side of the peak had 20ft visibility and the west side had 20 miles. Very cool cloud barrier. | |

| Took a run up this after getting to camp in Tamarack with the family and friends. Scrambled up with Melody Wong (look in your old Stoney Point guidebook). It took a couple of tries before I found the way up the slightly overhung west side of the summit block. It's only about 5.6, but geez, what a landing! Much easier down the south ridge. | |

| along with Miller, San Jacinto and Jean. Cornell was the best climb by far, mostly 3rd class with a nice summit block. Met a few other guys up there. Good time!! Ran into a rattlesnake on the way back, it must be that season. | |

| Climbed up from the tram with Gene Merewether. The last part of the cat walk was a little sketchy so we opted out of doing that. We also tagged Yale and Harvard Peaks along the way. Very warm day and post holed the whole way. | |

| After reading that Jacinto was just a hike I decided to scramble up Cornell. Came up first 50 ft on the SE, swung around and then went up the westside. Had trouble with that so I went around to the north and went up that way. The summit block was just scary-- had to jump to grab the first handhold. A lot of fun | |

| Great class 3 scramble to the summit block coupled with a spicy move or two on the actual summit. Looked under every stray rock for the register, but no luck. Headed back up the old trail with intentions of bagging San J and Folly, but lost the desire once I realized it'd be a 20-mile outing. Should have stuck to the Miller-Cornell ridge proper to keep it shorter. Another lesson learned... | |

| For whatever reason (the threat of rain) we decided to hike up Devil's Slide, over to Hidden Lake, up to Round Valley, climb up San Jacinto, and hike back to Humber Park instead of some rock route on Tahquitz. Whem Tom, an old rock climbing buddy of mine, saw Cornell as we headed toward Tamarack Valley said "Let's do that to". I've since been up a dozen or so times,usually in the winter or spring. | |

| Loved the ascent to this peak up 3d class route on its southern slope. The summit block is fabulous. First peak of a loop hike that included Miller, San Jacinto, Folly, Drury, Jean and Marion. | |

| Didn't have great info on this one, so we just cut across from Tamarak valley hoping to find a good way up. Came up the south east side and stopped about 30-40 feet from the top. Couldn't find a way up I thought my boys could come back down. Nice view, but I don't think I need to go back here. | |

| Done this one two or three times. Theron and I actually sat atop the tippy top when we were younger. Trips after that were painful and unforgetable. | |
