LONE MOUNTAIN - JUN 2009

On June 25th, 2009, GC Ward deacons left from the Edwards home with full packs and hiked through nearby neighborhoods, to Lone Mountain Peak and then back to the Edwards. Round trip was 5 miles. The climb from the base of Lone Mountain to the peak was about 600 feet vertically in a half mile. It was a good warm-up for the Uinta Trip. We will experience similar distances and elevation change before lunch on many of the days at camp this summer. The highlight of the trip was fresh watermelon and canteloupe at the peak. - GQE
