Hello!

I am leaving to hike the southern half of the Sierra High Route this upcoming weekend and I have added a few summit attempt additions on the way. I'd like to get from the top of Mt. Sill to the Palisade Glacier over Glacier Notch (GN), but I'm not seeing much information about navigating through GN. I'm trying to limit my climbs to class 3 and lower, so if (as I might have read ...

Hello all I have permits for Taboose Pass and was intending on doing Mount Ruskin. I thought I would have three days and now I really only have 2 also I’m not sure my CRV will make it on that road.
I’m looking at alternatives but would love suggestions for something that’s a shorter/easier approach and a class 2/easy 3 Peak with epic views. Aggasiz would be perfect but I’ve already done that. Looked up ...

We're planning on parking a car at each end if we have to, but I was hoping to find someone going around the same time who would be interested in a key swap at the halfway point to shave off ~3 hours of driving on the back end.

If so, ...

Hello everyone,

My husband and I hiked Mt Katahdin (Maine) last May via the Hunt Trail (out-and-back). It was a difficult hike for both of us due to the elevation gain and rock scrambling involved. However, it was also one of the most rewarding experiences, as well.

This May, we are headed to the White Mountains in New Hampshire. I am interested in hiking Mt Washington, but am wondering how the difficulty of Mt Washington ...

Does anyone know if the old miners cabin at Horton Lake is still standing?
