Description

Technical traverse of the full Evolution Crest. Approached via Piute Pass trail from North Lake. From Piute pass traverse the Sierra Crest to Bishop Pass. On the way, you will find climbing with technical difficulty to 5.9, about 25 Peaks that are at least 13,000 feet tall (some named, some unnamed) and a HUGE amount of elevation gain/loss. Most of the climbing is 3-4th class. The rock varies from good to garbage. Incredibly scenic and incredibly challenging and exposed route. After Bishop Pass, hike down the Bishop pass trail to South Lake.

Description

This is the longest continuous route possible on the Vineyard's north shore without a major water crossing. The route follows the beach from the east jetty at the Menemsha opening to the west jetty at the Tashmoo opening. It starts and ends at the outer end of each jetty! The entire route is on the beach—no detours into the upland anywhere. Low tide recommended! Carrying fish hook and spool of twine should perhaps ensure legality of passage, as long as you stay below the high tide line. Either direction! The route can also be run as out-and-back to return to the stating point.
