Pinnacle Saddle — Saturday, Sep. 27, 2025

The trail to the saddle is in good condition, a washout has been worked around about 3/4 the way up.

Did Pinnacle Peak and Lane Peak as well. NOTE: these peaks are NOT for the casual hiker. There is extreme fall risk on both and you should know your rock climbing abilities before trying these. I made this report because we saw people clearly not prepared for this trying to do the climb. After we finished, we talked to a ranger who told us Search and Rescue is typically called in 1-2 times per WEEK to help people on Pinnacle Peak (not the trail to the saddle).
