Slogfest from Rock of Ages TH
Climbed Mount Wilson and Wilson Peak from Rock of Ages TH. Started just after 4 am. Summited Mount Wilson just after 10:00 am. The last 150 feet are no joke and should be respected. Also, the talus climb leading to the final ridge was perhaps the worst part of the hike. Clouds started forming but no storms were materializing so we decided to tag Wilson Peak as well. The class 3 ledges were fun but tiring after already summiting Mount Wilson. Unfortunately, a big storm to the west materialized as we were summiting Wilson Peak. The descent from Wilson Peak was wet and scary with some lightning. Luckily, we managed to avoid the large strikes and made it down A-OK. Finished around 5:30. With Jesse Sumrak.
