Route Climbed: East Ridge Date Climbed: 1996  Sucess!

Sunshine is in a beautiful setting. The hike from Redcloud is a lark but the views are different than Redcloud. A worthwhile hike!

Route Climbed: Silver Creek - 10,400 Date Climbed: Aug 4, 2001  Sucess!

Sunshine was a mile and a half to the South of Redcloud and 500 vertical feet from the saddle to the peak. Reaching the summit was a piece of cake.



After about ten minutes on the summit I was headed back to Redcloud and then back down to the trailhead.

Camped at Grizzly Gulch and made my way up to Redcloud from there,along the ridge to Sunshine,back to the saddle and then straight down the scree to pick up the Silver Creek trail not far from the road.Nice weather.A few folk on Redcloud but had Sunshine all to myself.

Ran over to Sunshine after summiting Redcloud. A fast and easy ridge to reach the summit of Sunshine. By running most of the ridge it only took me 45 minutes to get from Redcloud to Sunshine. Very easy day bagging both peaks.

We returned via the South Fork Silver Creek trail and were glad because we would have gotten much wetter had we returned over Redcloud.

Nice jog over from Redcloud although a fast moving storm with a lot of lightning kept me on my toes...dropped off saddle (west?) under some rocks for protection till it cleared, then back over Redcloud.

A very easy descent from Redcloud to the saddle then back up Sunshine. It took just about 1 hour peak to peak.
