| Strong cold winds from below Badden-Powell all the way to the summit. No views as the peak was surrounded in clouds. | ||

| Tagged the summit on the way to Baden-Powell with my wife. Nice peak, but the air was pretty hazy, so not much to see. Easy to see the potential, though, if you caught it after a rain. | ||

| Climbed along with Baden-Powell. The nuns never did reach the summit. Oh well, I wouldn't have lasted five minutes in one of those black robes. | ||

| I enjoyed climbing up to Throop on my tour along the ridge visiting peaks. I enjoyed bagging of lots of peaks today in this wonderful area. | ||

| Started at the Islip Saddle parking lot taking the Pacific Crest Trail (PCT). Tagged Mt. Islip (8250') and Mt. Hawkings (8850') on the way to Throop Peak. Continued on to Mt. Baden-Powell (9399'). I returned the same way back to the Islip Saddle trailhead. It was a sunny clear day in early May. I recalled encountering some snow patches near Mt Hawkings. | ||

| This is a nice, easy hike to do on a summer evening. The views are great all along the trail, since much of it consists of hiking along or very close to a ridge. The grade is pretty gradual. In winter there is quite a bit of ice on the trail, but with instep crampons it should still be pretty easy. | ||
