Gaviota Peak

New game plan in effect... prep for multiple Sierra Nevada peaks this summer!

Just realized that the Half Dome cables will not be put up until the weekend after I am up in Yosemite... not cool! So the training has not stopped, but refocused on for a long and hopefully high endurance summer in the mountains.

I took my brother, Rick, on a new hike this morning; found it on Google Earth... love it! Gaviota Peak looks over the 101/1 interchange along with the a view of a few Channel Island. No pics this trip since Rick and I both forgot our cameras!

This was a nick butt kicker. Rick is like a Jack Rabbit and pretty much runs up the trail, but I was cleaning up the rear. Summit in only 1:21 with a slight delay to the hot springs. The long haul had a 13.7% incline... I did say it was a but kicker, take a look!


Next time I will have some pics and new waypoints...

Ciao
