It's been forever since I've done a trip report, but I felt like doing one so here I am! Hope some of you fellas remember me.
So, I am really not one for hot-weather camping, but my buddy Whit is all about it. We had planned this trip to be at the first of October thinking maybe the weather would have cooled off. Boy, were we wrong. It wasn't a bad time though! Plenty of canopy and shade. Here's the starting out pics:
We started at Randolph Trailhead.
We went up 201 to 209 and then took a right:
Went down 209 till we found a good camp spot. Stayed there for the night.
I didn't get a good pic of my set-up, but I did get a good one of my buddy Whit's set-up.
The next day we went down to 204 and went north up towards the tree.
I didn't take any pics of the tree once we got there. Just a video that I haven't uploaded in such a way I can post it. Nonetheless we came back down 204a back to 209 and took it back over 202 and headed back toward the car. Made it all the way on Saturday. Probably should have stayed one more night, but we got to talking about women and cheeseburgers and decided to hike it out early!
And here's the victory finish shot:
