Guye Peak — Saturday, Aug. 17, 2024

Good morning workout. I hiked to the north peak from the Alpental lot, then scrambled to the middle and south peaks.

The parking lot was already pretty full at 7:30 AM. The trail was in good condition and mostly dry. It was a steep hike all the way to the north peak.

To scramble to the middle peak, follow a dirt path on the right-hand side below the north peak. Then, scramble down a steep gully. There were one or two class 4 moves with exposure. After dropping down, head up the saddle between the north and middle peak on some scree and then it's a straightforward path to the middle peak.

From the middle peak summit, go straight ahead (leaning slightly left) and follow a path around the middle peak summit block. Then, scramble down a slabby rock face, class 3. After that, it's all straightforward.
