Pinnacle Peak, again


One week after our last hike, John Anderson and I scaled Pinnacle Peak again. The 3.8-mile round trip took 2.45 hours, so we averaged 1.3 mph. My phone app, My GPS Status, recorded the elevation at the top to be 533 meters, which figures out to be 1,749 feet. Washington Trails Association lists the summit at 1,800 feet. Pretty close, but I will go with the official figure.

John passes the familiar, supine, columnar basalt near the summit.


Statistics for the day:

Distance: 1.8 miles
Elevation gain: 1,000 feet
Conditions: Cool, light overcast
Load: About 15 pounds.

Statistics, year to date:

Distance: 3.6 miles
Elevation gain: 2,000 feet
