Clear and cool hike with my canine Rudi. Saw no other vehicles at the trailhead nor hikers on the route, making for a pleasant summer weekend experience.

With a lot of snow still on the Warners, I opted to do a westside approach. Kelly Creek gets you pretty close to the summit ridgeline via a poor 4x4 road, from there it was just dealing with the massive amounts of snow remaining up on top.

We (Kyle, Rico, and I) made it to within a mile of the end of the road before I decided the track was unfit even for the Land Cruiser. Took the horse trail south ... the dusty dungy horse trail ... then bushwacked the last couple hundred feet to the top. It was a hot, dry, featureless slog.

Drove as far as we could. About 2mi from the end of the road, a large deadfall tree blocked the way. Continuous snow coverage after about 7000'. Great views from the summit. Also ascended nearby willow point.

Date Climbed: Sep 1, 2003

See Dean's entry below. Very memorable Labor Day weekend swing through some very wild and remote country. The following weekend we (Dean, Dennis, and I) got together in the Wallowas for Red Mountain and Sacajawea Peak, my final two Oregon county highpoints.

On a three-day expedition through the wilds of SE Oregon, I bagged Crane Mountain first and then went on to tag the HP's of Harney, Malhuer and finally Baker county. The great views enticed me to explore all around the summit area. I think I found the highest elevation cattle in Oregon when I encountered a herd at over 8,000'!

Date Climbed: Jun 28, 2003

I hiked this at the end of June 2003. The access road was still snow blocked, so I had to hike a little ways. It was a beautiful clear day.

DeanLake County highpoint  Sucess!
Date Climbed: Sep 1, 2003

SP'er Bob Bolton and myself were finishing up a three day swing through southern Oregon and southwestern Idaho. We did Steens,
Stevenson Point, Hayden Pk in Idaho, Granite Peak in Nevada as well as Crane. Great stuff.

We camped at nearby Willow Creek campground and nabbed this prior to the long drive home.
