leejams Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Did kyes peak south rte with Nolan yesterday. First time in the monte crisco area for me and figured might as well climb the highest point to get the lowdown. Typical cascade climb, good trail turns to climbers trail which peters out and find your own way from here suckaa. The summit block was as wierd as I had heard, funky shit. Superb day, partner, and excellent views from the summit. Wise to fill up the jugs at virgin lake! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshK Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 nice, lee! don't you find the naming of "virgin" lake quite ironic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catbirdseat Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 So how long did it take you car to summit? How about "Spray to Spray"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nolanr Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 Oops, didn't see this, posted TR on another thread. 12 hrs car to car, w/ some lounging and some moving slower than molasses cuz we were getting stymied by the brush. Could definitely be done faster than that. Yeah, take all the water you can get and then some. Ran out on the way back down, led to some dehydration and some unhappy, crampy muscles.

JoshK Posted July 1, 2003 Share Posted July 1, 2003 man, just re-read this and want to get back to the area. I've been to blanca lake once and it was stunningly beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
