"3.24.2022~Gateway, East La Madre & 6,826’. 15 miles, 5,600’ gain in 8:41hrs. I bit off more than I could chew on this one on a warm Spring day. I started at the Kraft lot, Hell hill, Grey Cap Gully, Dropped down to Brownstone Canyon at the Pictographs, Gateway Peak, then East La Madre and 6,826’ at the end. It got late and I ran out of water so I headed downhill towards Summerlin with the plan to call Laszlo for a ride since I knew he lived close by. I usually don’t overextend myself but I hadn’t been in this area or done these peaks. I underestimated what I was in for. All went well and he saved my a$$ from hitchhiking back to Calico Basin. Great area and I have a good idea what I’m in for on a La Madre Ridge Traverse. This was the 1st time seeing all the construction and it was depressing but gives me an idea for car access for other goals. I can’t believe this area didn’t get protected.

"GPS got 5300' gain. Long day, 12 people! Thanks to Joel for constant good humor. Now for Pincushion Pinnacle -- please don't do this alone. I conferred with Bob C, and we concluded the current crux move on the N side is definitely harder than 5.2-- it is overhanging. I've done this 4x free, and peeled off once. We think it might be easier to climb directly up the from the saddle on what might be called the NW buttress-- it's been done by Dustin W, two people with a rope, that could be used to top-belay the second, would make more sense. I took down the rope I had placed 8 days ago, as I do not want to encourage people to try that route." — hwstock • Mar 16, 2022
"What a fun day! Laszlo and I intended to just do East & West Damsel Peaks via the NE Gully, with a possible stop at Steep Peak on the way down. When we got to West Damsel, we decided to try our luck with Gateway Peak. The ridge traverse wasn't too bad and the views from the summit were quite unique. " — Kevin • Oct 26, 2019
