***July 3
– First day of the Talusdancers trip is one week away, so I have to get in some extra climbing! I did the Prospect #3 loop today at Almaden Quicksilver.
***July 4
– Only time for a short urban hike today on the Los Gatos Creek Trail.
***July 5
– Quick hike up Deep Gulch past English Camp to the ridge near the old mine building and back down the same route.
***July 9
– The start of this year’s annual talusdancers trip. Not really any hiking today since this was the day we drove to Onion Valley to set up our car shuttle.
***July 10
– The first hiking day of the trip. We began by driving to South Lake where we started hiking. Today we went to Bishop Lake right below Bishop Pass.
***July 11
– Today we crossed Bishop Pass and descended through Dusy Basin to the JMT in LeConte Canyon. From there were hiked down canyon to the confluence with Palisade Creek.
***July 12
– We hiked up the Golden Staircase to camp at a bench above Palisade Lakes.
***July 13
– We crossed Mather Pass and hiked about half way down into Upper Basin to make camp below treeline.
***July 14
– We continued on down to the Kings River crossing and then climbed up to Marjorie Lake. There we decided to continue on and cross Pinchot Pass. We ended up at lower Twin Lake.
***July 15
– A short day, we hiked down to the Woods Creek suspension bridge.
***July 16
– We continued up to Rae Lakes.
***July 17
– We crossed Glen Pass and then descended the JMT to the Bullfrog Lake trail, which we took to upper Kearsarge Lake.
***July 18
– We crossed Kearsarge Pass and descended to the Onion Valley trailhead.
***July 19
– Not a hiking day since we were hoteling it in Mammoth. I spent some time at Mono Lake doing photography then drove home.
***July 28
– Took an evening hike at Almaden Quicksilver. Lost track of the time and had to run down Deep Gulch trail to get to the car at 8:30.
***July 30
– Time for a quick hike down the Los Gatos Creek trail to Campbell.
***July 31
– I took a short Castle Rock hike today, going out perhaps a half mile past Goat Rock. The trip was shortened by my encounter with a bicycle accident while ascending Hiway 9.
