Mt Rose Summit Hike






This has been a long time coming. Today we hike to the summit of Mt. Rose 10776 ft it was 11 miles and 2800 vert its one of the highest peaks in the Tahoe Basin. It was great to get back on the trail. It has been a early winter, so there was a little snow to deal with but nothing that stopped us. The weather couldn't of been better. You can see for hundreds of miles in all directions, you can see all the way to Mt. Lassen. It was a lot of fun and would do it again any day. The only bad news was we were hiking one woman down, my Aunt Ginger has been preparing all summer to do this hike and she unfortunately hurt her leg this week. If it feels better in the next few weeks I am going to do it again with her.
