The Lincoln Ampitheatre challenged me in every way possible! I started the hike fatigued from a previous summit and lost steam after hours of boulder scrambling and route finding. Made it to the road connecting Bross, Cameron, and Democrat... watched my group go to summit and made peace with the fact that I would not conquer Lincoln that day. I'll be visiting again via the standard Decalibron loop route!
