Pace: Moderate (2.5 to 3 mph) Total Distance: ~10 miles Total Elevation Gain: ~2,000 feet Difficulty: Challenging for Distance, Moderately Challenging for Elevation Gain NOTE: The Talus cave that we'll be going through will be dark and tightly enclosed in some areas. Also, the route along the High Peaks Trail will require climbing very steeply inclined stairs with narrow toe- holes and metal hand railing. Members who are either claustrophobic (i. e. uncomfortable being in narrow spaces) OR who are uncomfortable with being in high places should consider attending another hike event. WHAT TO BRING: Sturdy hiking shoes, layered clothing, wind & rain gear, lunch, hat, gloves, 4 or more liters of water, long pants (for knee protection through the caves) and long sleeve shirt. Flashlights or headlamp are required in the caves. A lunch and snacks for on the trail, cameras and Binoculars (there are condors there) HOW TO ATTEND: You must have appropriate hiking experience to qualify for attendance. Those who do NOT have appropriate hiking experience should consider attending another event. WHAT TO EXPECT ON THIS HIKE: Hike will commence at approximately 15 minutes after the posted start time. Hike will average speed between 2.5 to 3.0 mph. NOTE: THIS WILL BE A TEAM HIKING EFFORT WHICH MEANS WE WILL STAY TOGETHER AS A GROUP. THIS WILL NOT BE A SPEED HIKE AS THE PURPOSE FOR DOING THIS IS TO EXPLORE THE RUGGED WILDERNESS AREAS OF THE PINNACLES NATIONAL MONUMENT. DIRECTIONS: We will meet at the Chaparral Ranger Station on the west side of the Pinnacles National Monument. From the Monterey & San Francisco Bay Area: Take Hwy 101 south to the town of Soledad, and then take Hwy 146 east. Take care as you're driving through the town of Soledad; the highway takes a few turns so watch your signs carefully. Follow Hwy 146 for 14 miles into Pinnacles National Monument. Park your vehicle in the open lot at the Chaparral Ranger Station and remember to pay your day use fee ($5/day per vehicle). |
WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Fit & well-conditioned hikers who can handle a 10 mile / 2,000 feet cumulative elevation gain hike over steep/rough terrain. MUST be able to successfully negotiate crawling / spelunking through a darkened Talus cave, and climbing up & over very steeply inclined stairs with narrow toe-holes and metal hand railing as we traverse the High Peaks. |
| THIS WILL BE AN INTERMEDIATE, MODERATELY STRENUOUS HIKE due to combined distance and elevation gain. Trail condition is excellent and well maintained in most locations throughout the park. Trail route will take us through a darkened Talus cave which will require the use of a headlamp or flashlight to navigate through. Trail will also encompass a hike through the Pinnacles rock formations that are both steep & rugged. |
| RESPONSIBILITY: Please be aware that we expect you to take responsibility for your safety while we are out on the trails. This means being prepared with adequate hiking gear and making sure the difficulty level of the event IS NOT beyond the limits of your health & conditioning. We understand that your "Yes" RSVP to this event means you accept this. |
