To close out the 2023 Six-Pack of Peaks season we finished our 12th peak with Baden-Powell. A peak I have summitted many times and always enjoy. We hope to do it via Dawson Saddle which is a really fun route but with Hwy 2 still closed we ended up doing it via the switch backs from Vincent Gap.
The trailhead was packed when we arrived as there was a large group that started earlier. We began at 8am and passed many very friendly people coming down as we made our way up. We reached the summit by 10am and there were only a few people at the top. Took in the view and a few pics and began our way back down reaching the parking lot by noon.
With all the training and peak bagging throughout the year this final climb was very easy and not too strenuous at all. I feel like I'm in a good place physically to tackle Mt Whitney next month.
Another fun year/season of participating in the Six-Pack of Peaks Challenge!!!
