| the hike |
Half loop hike up Telegraph Pass Trail and down Pyramid.
The trip up from the trailhead gains over 1,000 feet in 1.5 miles to the Pass. From there, in a half mile, we intersect the National Trail at the level of the radio towers. We will then use the National Trail to connect with the Pyramid trail. There will be a car shuttle between the Pyramid trailhead and the Telegraph Pass Trailhead. The two trailheads are seperated by a couple of miles. Required: • Sturdy hiking boots • At least 3 liters of water • Rain poncho • Hat, sunblock, sunglasses Recommended: • Lunch or snacks • Camera |
