20091114-15 Sugarloaf and Ontario Peaks
Posted: Sun Nov 15, 2009 1:47 pm
CMC-OC and I did an overnight on the summit of Sugarloaf, then hiked up to Ontario in the morning, descending Lost Creek (canyon).
Lost Creek 'requires' 3 rappels, two sub-50ft, one 100ft. We downclimbed the first two, but it would be far better to rapp' em.
It was INCREDIBLY windy on the summit. Nearly tore my tent down.

Sitting on Ontario's summit block
CMC climbing the ultimate-est higher-est summit block of eternal peril and peakbagger damnation.
Kellys Camp
From Kellys Camp, we headed north along Shortcut Ridge, then dropped west into Lost Creek.
Downclimbing waterfalls
Koreans! (I'm sure nowadays my stating that these people are Korean is racist. Yay! Stupid world.)

Awesome Celica is awesome.
Had to inject some WAY COOL into this thread.
