Peak #7 in Ocean to Peak Adventures Mountain Summit Challenge 2023  Sucess!

This was my second time up this mountain, and it was all snowshoes going up and down. Last time I hiked this was May 2, 2021 and it was probably 2/3 distance hiking on dirt and the other 1/3 distance wearing snowspikes for the snow.

Nice hike  Sucess!

This was supposed to be a much larger hike gathering (like 15 people), but it ended up being just 4 of us. It was still cool.

Fun Family Hike  Sucess!

Easy enough for my dad with bad knees to manage, but still a good trek. Awesome views.

Snowshoe with Baldy  Sucess!

A fun day of snowshoeing - Up the TRT starting on Hwy 267, up to Martis Peak and then over to the COHP and the short hop up to Baldy. Round trip was about 13.5 miles. TR is HERE.

Ran most of the way  Sucess!

Still some snow along the road. Ran about 2/3rd of the way up and almost all the way down. I could see Lassen Peak from the fire tower. Although I found it, Martis Peak Road is not marked.

Normal route  Sucess!

Very enjoyable snowshow trip. Easy for a day and great views. Love the drawings inside the lookout labeling the surrounding peaks.

Following the beaten path  Sucess!

Skinned my way up, and slid back down. Kind of a soggy day--the snow kept clumping on my skis, grrrrr. Snowing on top, so no view, but a fun outing nonetheless.

TRT  Sucess!

Hiked the TRT from Brockway summit to Martis Pk, Placer HP, Mt Baldy, Rifle Pk, Rose Knob and Rose Knob Pk. The lookout has good views, the peak itself does not. I ran into 5 bears near Martis Pk around sunset on my way back.

Usual route  Sucess!

Continuous snow from the locked gate up to the lookout. Carried snowshoes the whole way since it was packed down by snowmobile traffic.

Beautiful clear day and unseasonably warm (50's in the afternoon). Nice half-day stroll.

Also did this several times in winter 2003.
