Some pics from our trip into the Gearhart Wilderness for you, Mike. :
The geology was cool. The first mile or so from the trailhead had these "wattles" they called the Pinnacles. The rock had horizontal straitions. Would've made for some great bouldering.
Mt. Gearhart is a scarp face. We camped near the meadow. It was 6.5 miles in.
I love things like this. This was way too big or I'd have taken it out with me!
I'm getting the hang of imgur but I like PB much better!
