Thanks for looking...hope it helps. If you ever try to climb above the second waterfall, and have the time, post what's up there.

We followed the HPS route which never exceeded Class 1. True that it was the steepest sustained Class 1 that I've done in a while. Here's the link for the route: http://angeles.sierraclub.org/hps/guides/25f.htm

Do you mean route #1? I think that's the ridge to the left of my route through the canyon. I'd give you more credit - anything trailess is class 2 for me!

He means Route 1 is Class 1 . Bechtt and I have discussed this before and I often would consider some of the stuff he calls class 1 more like class 2, but when you look at the definitions class 2 states "You may also have to put your hands down occasionally to keep your balance" and this was not necessary for this ridge. I guess for someone with bad balance this could be class 2 :)

Travis_Drainage to the South West?

I have a question, is the drainage shown in this photo the one that you describe in your route description as follows? "I left Camp Creek and ascended small drainage to the SW. The drainage climbs 600ft to a ridge overlooking the Camp Creek canyon."

Definately not! The drainage that I ascended is a small and rocky streambed to the W of the main Camp Creek bed (your photo looks like the main bed). After climbing this small drainage, I struck the col between Little San G and the developed summit just to the W.

Referring to the map, I departed Camp Creek in favor of the small drainage because of the "waterfall" marked in red. When you climb the small drainage to the col, the Camp Creek canyon is below and to the climbers left. If you continue up the waterfall instead, I believe that you will end up near your photo.
