The next morning, Joe (me), Tom G, Chip and Sooz at the trailhead at about 8,100 feet.
Starting off on the hike.
Looking to the southeast into Death Valley. Really hazy today.
Chip and Sooz up ahead.
Tom and Sooz wanted to hike to Rogers Peak so they left the trail and hiked up it's east ridge.
Chip and I stayed on the trail and planned to met them up at Arcane Meadow. This is one of the first views we got of Telescope Peak.
