Ascent of Hart Peak on 2019-02-17Other People: | Solo Ascent Only Party on Mountain | Date: | Sunday, February 17, 2019 | Ascent Type: | Successful Summit Attained | Motorized Transport to Trailhead: | 4x4 Vehicle | Peak: | Hart Peak | Location: | USA-California | Elevation: | 5545 ft / 1690 m |
Ascent Trip ReportOn ascent, I tried to aim the S saddle, encountering some cactus-whacking. Without thoroughly evaluate the weakness, I climbed straight up from a chute at S side, then a series of easy class 3s, great protection and handholds, no exposure concern, basically hugging the ridge to keep my orientation. On descent, I went a little W side of S ridge, planning a better route, all class 2 or under. Once I hit the road, I followed the ranch road to avoid bush / cactus, until I nearly missed my car. |
