Air Time  Sucess!

Needing some "air time" before heading for Mexico to climb the high volcanoes we spent a couple of days wandering around the Sierra and decided that we would climb Stevens from the highway. I learned here that leather gloves do not keep your hands warm.

from the east  Sucess!

pretty much came straight up from the highway. scrambled up from the east. it was definitely more "interesting" than the walk up from the other side. nice weather, pretty much no snow, but windy at the top.

I was with hgrapid.. and I will add that the descent to the Upper Truckee basin was also muddy.

From Red Lake Peak  Sucess!

Bagged Red Lake first, and then Stevens. Took about two hours to bag both peaks. The descents along the connecting ridge are pretty tricky. We signed the log book.

Started from a turnout on highway 88 and came up the east face. Clear, but cool and windy. Register needs a couple ziploc bags and a pen that works.

COLD!  Sucess!

Traversed from Red Lk. Pk. Blowing snow and temperatures in the low-mid teens. No views at all. Had to dig the summit register pads out of the snow - previous visitor or nature had dumped the contents on the ground.

Red Lake traverse  Sucess!

Great views with a storm rolling in. Kane and I hit this peak after hiking over from Red Lake Peak. Excellent hike that was well worth the effort.

Perfect winter overnighter  Sucess!

Traversed from Red Lake Peak after spending the night at ~9900'. The views were amazing, temps were warm and what little wind we encountered was isolated to the evening.

A snowy, wintry day in late April. Clouds invaded the summit prior to our arrival, so we barely had view from one summit point to the next.
