For those who need a even greater challenge than this trail, try the ascent of Jacinto via the north face (Snow Creek). Over 10000 foot gain in less than 6 miles.

Or...if you are going to climb "Cactus to Clouds" this spring, you will have more than enough conditioning to bypass Camp Muir, and do the thing in one day.

The students in RMI seemed to be having a great time. All of them told me it was very worthwhile having taken the course.

Mr. Markv is right. One can follow the tracks just fine of the many, many, other groups and he is also right on about turning back with any sign of bad weather. I turned back on two attempts because ...
