Trip: Johnny Peak 6294' - Johnny Creek Campground

 

Date: 5/1/2012

 

Trip Report:

Looking for drier weather Fletcher and I headed East. We did indeed find nicer weather. We headed up the distinct ridge above the Johnny Creek Campground on the Icicle Creek hoping for a summit of Big Lou. The route itself was great for reaching the ridge but the 2 miles to the summit didn't seem likely in our allotted time so we instead stayed on our ridge until we intersected Icicle Ridge. Once we realized the point to our East was a bit higher we headed there. The views were amazing and I was quite pleased with the route.
