I will be headed back to Rodgers Peak (south of Yosemite) sometime in September to retrieve an empty food cache I left nearby. If anyone capable of climbing this peak wants to come along, let me know. This trip can be done as a dayhike or overnight backpack with bonus peaks (preferred). The max difficulty will involve class 3 scrambling.
Options:
just Rodgers by itself: ~27 miles 7,800' gain
Rodgers + nearby bonus peaks: ~28 miles 9,200' gain
Rodgers + all bonus: ~28 miles 11,000' gain (preferred)

map of options: https://caltopo.com/m/T2VB

Note: Even if you only want Rodgers and I go for the bonus, you do not need to join me for the bonus (or even Rodgers if you just want a chill backpacking trip)
