route map

Voted 9/10

I posted a topo map with the route I took last fall. I believe the other topo map is a little misleading. You leave the main trail much sooner (not far after crossing Rumble Creek) than is indicated on the other map. If you try to find a trail close to the South Fork of Rumble Creek, you'll most likely end up on a game trail that will peter out. Yes, I've done it.

Also, the route on the other map indicates that you'll drop way down into the basin south of the upper lake after climbing that ridge. Thankfully, the trail doesn't go into that basin, it follows the ridge up around the southern summit, Point 8852, so you really won't be losing all of the elevation.

Hasn't voted	MTcutts is right. The trail takes off just past Rumble Creek crossing. We climbed Holland Peak on September 19, 2009 and I tracked our route on my Garmin GPS. I will post the JPEG of route if possible on SummitPost to replace the incorrect map. Great day with awesome views. Saw mountain goats above Upper Rumble Lake. Climbed Sunday Mountain the following day in snow squalls.

	Hasn't voted	Linda, MTcutts.... Thanks for the info! At first I didn't see to what you were referring, and so didn't make the correction. NOW I see it, and have put in a new topo/route map. I'm going to be completely redoing the Holland Peak page this winter, and am glad to have the corrected info! Vernon
