"As an adolescent I aspired to lasting fame, I craved factual certainty, and I thirsted for a meaningful vision of human life - so I became a scientist. This is like becoming an archbishop so you can meet girls."

A closer look at Hawkins PeakIt was my third time hiking the High Peaks trail in Pinnacles, but the first time I found the climber's trail up the summit block of Hawkins Peak ("Tuff Dome"). I scrambled up a flake / ledge thing as far as I could go, and then turned back.

PinnaclesDate is approx. Did not summit, as we didn't have climbing gear, but hiked around the summit area, along the base of Tuff Dome. Great area.
