To Frazier park.
Bagged Pinos - Sawmill - Grouse - Cerro Noroeste/abel
Saw few deer......But more quails than Tacodelrio has taxidermed to his wall.
Nice n shaded all day. Temps mid 70's Very good hike.
Did some recon on the way back. This area has huge potential for XC adventures. The best was Grouse Mt. Took about 7 hours
~15 mi - 4800ft gain
On the way to pinos
Looking W from pinos summit
Sawmill from pinos
Sawmill & Grouse
WTf is this?
Grouse from the next saddle
Now on to Cerro Noroeste - Mt abel
The forest gets dense and thick at this point
On the back bone going up Cerro Noroeste
Looking back at Grouse
U can see the 3 ridges going up to Grouse, Sawmill & pinos from the valley below
Cerro Noroeste wasnt that exciting... just an old ski lodge
I had missed the cairn for the peak of sawmill on the way in so i hit it on the way back. For reason reason i think it made the hike better this way...
The ridge on the way up
Looking back at Grouse and Mt abel
Finally @ summit
Back at pinos looking at sawmill and grouse
On the way back i thought it would be a good idea to take the Wildlife Viewing trail back, to you know..........see some wildlife........
This is all thats there
THE END
