EISPIRATEN

I know it's supposed to snow on Tuesday... I doubt it will start getting warmer

I summited Mt. Whitney, so I feel like I should post up one of these Trip Reports in order to be a better part of the site :D Due to a series of cancelations and changed trip ideas, my group finally left Claremont with only three guys, including myself. The original plan was to drive out Friday morn...

Thanks for the replies guys! haha we are planning on hiking a bit in the dark, It's a bit of a competition, we have two ROTC cadets, an AROTC cadet, and myself representing Marine OCS. All of us are in pretty good (I'd say very good) physical condition, so that's not too worrying. We are trying to g...

Three friends and I from college out here in Claremont, CA are going to be heading up Mt. Whitney this weekend. We are planning on heading out Friday, getting a permit and relaxing all day. Big early dinner and sleep. Saturday up at 2:30AM and hike Mt. Whitney all in one day. Up and Back in time to ...

Hey Guys,

Anyone here go out for the San Bernadino Sherriffs Department Mud Run this morning? I was out there with the other Marine Officer candidates from our office and it would be cool to know someone from here was out there!

If you didn't go, consider it next year, it was crazy fun.

Thanks for the tips JeffD, I'll get a map ASAP so I can get started a-planning. Taco: I meant that I didn't want to sketch people out. Not that I was sketched out. Everyone here is good people but I am new... just saying. Matt: That's cool, I'm busy this weekend and the weekend of sept 12 but maybe ...

So I am planning a trip up into the mountains near Mt. Baldy. Now, by planning I mean I am free every Friday-Saturday-Sunday, and would love to tag along with anyone going out just so I could get used to the area. I won't hold anyone up, I've gone on trips for 22-days, 16-days, and 8-days: mainly of...

Thanks! I did a 22-day mountaineering trip (2 resuplies) in the Sierra Nevadas (Thunder Mountain, nearish the High Sierra Trail) and yeah the brush was pretty bad. It's not godawful as long as you've got everything in your pack nice and streamlined, and weren't afraid to get dirty! At least in my me...

@mattmaxon: Yeah, I'll try to get out and about before then, but I don't want to compromise athletics by risking getting hurt/tired before a game or important practice etc. @AlanK: I am coming out to Claremont McKenna to play varsity soccer! I am super excited lol. @Taco: A group outing would be awe...

Hey all, I'm going to be heading out to California come August, as I am now attending college just 15 minutes from Mt. Baldy. I love hiking, mountaineering, and other fun stuff, especially overnights. I am a pretty good backpacker (you just need to know how to walk really! :D), but my mountaineering...
