Rose Peak

What a hike!!!!!!!!! The Big Burn is a killer.

It was a great day for the 6th and final hike, and I met several other six-packers tackling their last summit as well!  The trails

Weather cooperated for good hiking day.  Mostly overcast with temps in the 50s, colder and windy at Rose Peak.  Had good hiking partner who pulled

The shortest day of the year presented a fantastic, dry day to take on the longest peak of all. Green pastures (already!) and friendly cows

This was my first solo hike over ten miles! I averaged a 16.30 min/mile pace and finished the hike in 5:06:00 moving and 5:48:00 total.

We hiked to the Sunol Backpackers camp and stayed the night in Eagles Aeyrie.  The wind kicked up about midnight and blew hard all night
