"Day 2 of an Eastern Sierra trip. With dozens of amazing options in “The Book”, we spent over an hour settling in on an objective the night before. But when we woke up, within 5 min we pulled an audible — after over 10 years of thinking about it, worrying about snow conditions, etc., we FINALLY decided to go for the classic Pinner Couloir. This aesthetic chute twists and turns its way for 3500 ft down Laurel Mountain, its mysteries tucked out of sight from easily accessible vantage points. With zero recent beta we just had to go and check out conditions for ourselves.
As we hiked from Convict Lake and then skinned up the apron to the base of the Pinner, we braced for 4 hours of stairmaster & a grim ski in all-day shade and frozen-in-time avy debris fields. But lo and behold, everything we’d read was wrong and the entire Pinner stayed in the blazing sun during our entire trip. Instead of hours of icy frontpointing, we were placated by a low-consequence booter (albeit a loooong booter). The only thing keeping us on edge was the threat of rockfall as evidenced by the minefield of rocks pocketing the entire length of the couloir.
Topping out of the Pinner, the first thing you see ..." — scott • May 4, 2019
"First time here and used a description and 5 GPS waypoints to exploratory hike this tough Sierra peak. We didn't use a route most people do, it was a straight up assault on class 4 with a lot of exposure and loose sections. Very difficult!" — acekelly • Jun 23, 2018
"From saddle between Laurel and Bloody. Planned on doing both peaks but major storm system prevented us from getting up Bloody. Great quick sierra peak to help me acclimate for next week's big trip! The drive to the TH is longer than the hike (4x4 with high clearance and skillz required)" — calipidder • Jul 30, 2011
