| no partners | | Up early after a mild windy night at camp, Paul and I started our hike to Emory shortly after sunrise at around 8 AM (Central DST). It was going to be another warm humid day, so we wanted to get it done before any thunderstorms fired up. Excellent trails all the way up (though I got tired of all the water bar/steps). My favorite part was the section that wound through the Pinnacles. Got very steep near Emory Peak as expected. Paul climbed up the lower peak on the left at the point where the final scramble begins to get a better look at the peak. We decided not do the last 50 foot scramble to the top. Dropped down to a shady spot and had our lunch break before heading down the mountain. Still no thunderstorms in sight when we got back to camp, but you knew they would be around before too long.  |
