Mt Baden-Powell to Islip Saddle NOT!
Posted: Fri Jun 05, 2009 4:45 pm
So I arrived at Islip Saddle at the appointed hour of 6:30am
The wind was strong, the temps where low
3 PCT thru hikers came down from Little Jimmy, they where heading for Sulfur Springs
After Claudia arrived we decided to nix the 12 mile trip and just make a quick dash up Mt Baden-Powell
On the way over there looking down in to the clear and warm High Desert I got a (rare) brain storm!
Devils Chair! Hey! I've never hiked to Devils Chair
I didn't have to twist her arm and the dogs didn't care either
It was nice down there though a bit windy got some snow showers too....
Here are the photos...
