Hi all,
Short-time lurker here. I really enjoy all of the trip reports and awesome information everyone shares on here. I will be hiking the HST trail in early-September and am hoping for suggestions, and information, regarding non-technical summits along the route, preferably class 1-3. Any and all suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Eric

I don't give out specific route information, my belief is that it takes away from the whole adventure spirit of a trip, if you need every inch planned out, you'll have to get that from someone else.

Re: Non-technical peaks along HST
I'd add a few:
On the west end: Alta Peak (class 1)
Also: Mt Stewart (class 2)
and, not to forget, Mt Whitney (class 1).
