Enjoyed the report and photos/videos. But i think my fave pic was the Milky Way shot!

Thanks Florian for the comments. The shot of the Milky Way I have wanted to do for a long time. It was dark enough at the campground that it worked.

Super nice website.

Harry, regarding your socalpeaks.com website what do DPS, HPS, SDC, and 14ERS mean?

They are peak lists from the Sierra Club. I do not officially belong to the Sierra Club but find their lists an interesting peak bagging challenge for southern California

DPS = Desert Peaks Section
HPS = Hundred Peaks Section
SDC = San Diego County List
14ers = CA 14ers in the Sierra (a goal I have had for awhile but have not made to much progress)

Most of these lists are centered in Southern California thats why I have chose them

I also enjoyed your awesome pictures, video and trip report. I also used to get altitude sick when I went too fast. No danger of that now

Here is a link to the Sierra Club (if you like rules and formality)

Hi Cy

I dont have any interest in joining the Sierra Club just completing their southern California lists.

Harry, thanks for explaining the lists.
