"So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life."

DayhikeEasy dayhike during some light storms and thunder around but no lightning seen. Once getting up to the peak, realized we needed to find the proper route and soon enough we were on top, cool rock and incredible views of Tahoe. From here we went offtrail to nearby Peak 9269 which had some particularly fun scrambling on and around it. Quick descent back to the car.

Bagged this during a Desolation backpacking tripWhile doing a SOTA backpacking trip I started from Phipps pass (base camped at Phipps Lake). Day tripped over to the spine. Pretty simple overland route.. I crossed at Rubicon Lake to make the ascent. Made the spine, and worked over to the summit.

With RubiconBypassed this initially as the weather was crap and headed first to Rubicon (started near the state park). Views began to clear when on Rubicon and had sunny skies by the time I returned, though it never did rise above freezing. Splendid views.

Route Climbed: Creek Drainage Route Date Climbed: 3-5-2005Hee-Haw. Used this little peak for a tune up to the climbing season (which I'm getting a late start at!). Climbed with Howsiang Tan (hyperbolictans) and Caroline. Struggled up through the deep snow and 2800 foot ascent (in only 2 miles!) but the trip down was great! I finally learned how to ski with snow shoes!
