Successful First Ascent of the Queen Pickson Traverse with Robert on 9/14-9/16/16: This is a very remote 10-peak traverse located on the east side of the Kaweahs, a subrange of the southern High Sierra. The grueling approach involved heading up and over Shepherd Pass, dropping into the Kern Rive gorge, and ascending back up to 13,000 ft to traverse. The ridge was pretty enjoyable, with several hours spent on terrain that was class 4 and up,
Difficulty: III+, 5.6
Stats: ~80 miles 20,000 ft gain
