EISPIRATEN

Not that I am aware of.

Under the big old building, it looks stable. I think it is impossible to get into the tunnels as they are barred off.

So I was wondering if it is legal and safe to camp in the structure of the Big Horn Mine, it looks like it would be a lot of fun? Has anyone ever done it?

Awesome trip, good to know you can still drive to Vincent Gap. May have to hike this in the near future.

Well I intended to Summit Telegraph this Sunday but weather conditions convinced me to do other wise. I left for Baldy Canyon with bright blues skies but as soon as I hit Icehouse Canyon the clouds already started to roll in. It was 29 degrees in the parking lot so I left with my jacket on but took ...

I talked to a rescue team member at the REI Arcadia but he didn't go into much details.

So I have been half hartingly trying to get to Telegraph Peak the last two weeks. Two weeks ago My sister and I made it to Timber Mountain in good time but it was during the storm so we headed back. Then last week we did the same hike again but brought two other friends who were slower so we only go...

What I mean is I dont intend to take the road there and back, just back. I want to follow the summer trail near the rim on the way to glacier point. its looking like anytime from now forward is gonna be good! its snowin more right now too :) ...im not sure what you mean about traversing between road...

While we are on the topic, Taco or Everydayrunner, I am doing a snowshoeing trip with some friends from Badger Pass to Taft Point out to Glactier Point and then back via the road. Any suggestions on a good time of year? I was suggestd to plan for Feb or March but I was hoping to go sooner? Also peop...

Cool thanks, We are planning a short backpacking trip along glacier point as soon as their is enough snow. Not sure if we will spend much time in the valley.

I guess I will find out soon enough (I have done C2C before). We are planning on doing Langley in September and C2C in October. Langley should be about 400 ft lower with about 1500 less gain than Whitney.

The Momyer trails looks just as bad not if not worse then Vivian, I have never been on it though. What is it like?

So Google does have the answers for everything. Great pictures, I did Whitney last year as a through hike from Horseshow Meadows. I want to do it as a dayhike sometime. How is it compared to C2C?

I have no idea but I would think Baldy is actually Gorgonio and Baden-Powell is Baldy?

oh boy that sandwhich looks good. Nice trip report, we are doing San G this weekend and then Baldy and Cucamonga, hopefully with less crowds.

Took the wife with me to Smith Mountain off Why 39 just below Crystal Lake. Beautiful day but just a little windy and cold. Ran into about 5 other people on the trail. I did not do the scramble to the top. The trail for the most part was in great condition. Here are the pictures I took. http://www.f...

I have a Mountain Hardware Drifter 2, two person tent. I have used it for two seasons (maybe 4 trips?). It does not show much signs of ware. It includes the footprint and geat loft totallying just under 5 lbs. It also has two doors and can be pitched with just the footprint and rain fly. I am lookin...

Thanks again Norma, The conditoons now would be completly differnent from last weekend, crampons for sure and maybe snow shoes.

nice pictures, do you happen to have a map of your route?

That great part about the trip was it was right after a small snow storm so there was fresh powder everywhere. Temps were pretty cold and the wind did not help out much. We put on our Kathoola’s just before mile 1. The trail was pretty easy going with a few sketchy parts. Once we hit the first plate...

If I recall there was now snow to Icehosue Saddle, I think we did hit about 3-4 icy patches.

How about now?

So we hiked the Three T's for the frist time last Saturday. Beautiful weather although it was a little windy on the NE side. It was chilly only because we were sweating and the wind was cooling us off. I was supprised how little use that trail shows. Not only were we making fresh tracks the entire t...

Any suggestions or precautions for hiking in the wind tomorrow. I plan on doing the three t,s.

I run 3 miles twice a week, primarily to get ready for my first "sprint' triathlon in Fontana, other then that lots of bike riding for fun.

Sounds beautiful, any pictures? We did this last year in the snow (Feburary) but only went the other direction up and back.

I remember doing this hike in the sumer and the first part was steep with some exposure then later on the trails was easy to follow as it was cut through the trees. The top was a little more open and merandering. In the winter I imagine the top wouldbe best going straight up. What is the general con...

I have an iceaxe and kathoola micro spikes. I guess I need a helmet. do i need crampons if I was to attend?

Anyone know if the road to Vincent gap is open. I want to to hike to the gold mine tomorrow. Any conditions about the snow?

this is great for us cyclists but couldnt they just run the sweeper up and back once a year?
