I'm a little surprised this one doesn't get more traffic, but no complaints. Great workout and great views, for sure! No warm-up at all involved, and the "road" was rocky and had taken a beating after the recent rains. The steep push and sweat equity makes the summit brew taste that much better, though. We still had some time on the day, so we went for some bonus mileage and dropped off of Madera to the west, then made our way along the ridgeline to Peak 6517'. Only three parties had signed in since 1999, and the paper in the summit register was a bit charred around the edges from a fire, but not a terribly recent one, from the looks of things.
