It's a tough job, but someone has to photograph the mountain. www.MtPrinceton.org

You hit a real nice day to do San J. from the tram!! Looked like great fun. I climbed the North Face of San G. last Sunday. I have to say it is, by far, the best route on the mountain. I hope you took a crack at it. Waiting of the next TR.
Just a drinker with a climbing problem..

Yea, bj, it was a pretty cool couple of climbs! I wasn't sure what exactly I was going to do until the day before as conditions we a bit variable at the time, so they were even mroe satisfying given the uncertainty.

Do you have any other favorite peaks out there? Have you done San Bernadino Peak, Baldy or Mt. Badden-Powell?
