"Finally invested in a ski mountaineering set up and this seemed like a good peak to test things out. Suncupped conditions made things tricky on the way up but found surprisingly good conditions on the way down. Tagged two sisters as before skiing out. " — Christopher • Jun 14, 2023

"After years of looking south and seeing the highest peaks in the Tahoe region dominating the skyline, I finally stopped making excuses (e.g., too far to drive, not enough time, eating a donut, etc.). Today was the day! All went well except underestimated how much water to bring. Up above treeline, it was hot and hardly any shade. I knew this going in, but I drained my 2 Nalgenes way too early. Aborted attempt on South Jobs (Steve?) as dehydration started to dog me. All in all, a must-do loop in Tahoe, but be prepared for a big day with no water source most of the way.

"Awesome day at the Carson pass area. Breezy conditions at lower elevations. Excessive windy conditions at the summit made for some sketchy scrambling to the top. Great views all day. " — NO5s • Jul 3, 2022

"Weekend trip to Desolation Wilderness. After meeting up with my friends at Lake Aloha and setting up camp, we climbed Ralston Peak. On day 2, we went around the south side of the lake and climbed up the side of Pyramid until we reached the summit trail. We submitted Pyramid Peak and continued along the Crystal Range Traverse, we went over the sketchy class 3/4 area just below Pyramid and continued along the ridge to Peak 9686, Mt Agassiz, and Price. Then we descended down the saddle at sunset to connect up with the PCT and got back to camp at 11pm. The entire loop took about 12 hours." — timothylaurent • Jul 2, 2022
