Forever Climbing the Range of Light...

The Sierra Peaks Section is an Outings Section of the Angeles Chapter of the Sierra Club that
explores, enjoys, preserves, and stimulates interest in climbing in the Sierra Nevada.
The Section offers a varied schedule of climbing activities during the climbing season
ranging from introductory trips for beginning climbers and Wilderness Training Course graduates
to multi-day backpacks that may require extensive mountaineering skills in rock and snow climbing. The Section will be many Outings or co-sponsored Outings during the balance of the 2007 Sierra Nevada climbing season. You are encouraged to participate in one or more of the outings,
enjoy the mountains, make new friends and climb with old friends.

New Outings Listings - August 2nd - 3rd (Mallory & Irvine)
and August 8th - 10th (Deerhorn & West Vidette).

A stormy afternoon in the high peaks of the southern Sierra Nevada. A view of the east face of Lone Pine Peak (12,944') from Tuttle Creek Campground. This peak is located east of the main crest in the southern Sierra Nevada overlooking Lone Pine, CA. A discussion of climbing routes can be found on pages 52 through 58 of The High Sierra: Peaks, Passes and Trails, 2nd Edition by SPS member R. J. Secor. This peak is generally approached from the north side via the Meysan Creek trail. Picture taken by Sara Danta, SPS Newsletter Editor in the Autumn of 2007. In this photograph the summit of Mount LeConte (13,960) lies immediately to the right of Lone Pine Peak. Its summit is obscured by clouds.
