Pinnacles

A hike along the High Peaks trail through spires of volcanic rock and talus caves. We had actually planned for an easy 3.5 mile hike but we may have made a slight miscalculation so here is what we got instead:

       Condor Gulch to High Peaks Loop
       5.3 miles round trip, 3 to 5 hours
       Elevation: 1,300 feet
       Strenuous

      Walk through the heart of the Pinnacles rock formations, 

      particularly along the Steep and Narrow section of the High Peaks trail. 
      Add the Rim and Moses Spring trails to extend the loop to 6.1 miles.
The beginning of our ascent



The High Peaks





And there's a diference between hardcore and amateur climbers.
While the former hang to ropes the latters hang to railings...



Bear Gulch Cave


Moses Spring Trail



Wasn't that bad... Guess next time I'll have to try this one.
