My friend Emilie has done this route dozens of times for her mountaineering training. I've gone out of Mitchell Canyon for a couple of hikes and I can see how it could be preferable grade-wise. Either way any of the peaks in Mt Diablo S.P. are not for those without perseverance! Unless of course they just drive up to the top...cheaters. <BR/>P.S. let us know when your ABC spot is going to air!rebecca a.k.a. bondgurlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02823358956680808498noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8208066531661483600.post-87507155657505460672009-01-29T15:48:00.000-08:002009-01-29T15:48:00.000-08:00Oh, you went the HARD way....from Donner. I usually go via Mitchell Canyon, which is probably longer but makes it possible for me. I was up there the 23rd doing something with ABC News (yet to be aired). North Peak and Olympia make a fine test. Good job finishing that loop!4wheelbobhttp://www.4wheelbob.comnoreply@blogger.com
