This was a mid-October overnight from the Upper Dungeness Trailhead to Handy Camp. It was my puppy's first overnight camping trip.
Less used trail to a beautiful lake (much of it on the PCT). First 1.5 miles is steep, and somewhat rocky in places. Once you reach Hope Lake you're on the PCT, and the trail is more gradual.
Climbing Lundin Peak is a challenging and rewarding endeavor that tests a wide array of mountaineering skills. It presents opportunities to employ alpine techniques, rock climbing abilities, scrambling proficiency, and navigation expertise. The peak's ridgeline offers an excellent introduction to ridge climbing, allowing climbers to hone their skills while attempting a successful round-trip ascent and descent. Those who dare to take on Lundin Peak will be able to push their limits and showcase their full range of mountaineering abilities in this comprehensive alpine adventure.
