Route: Full Evolution Crest Traverse (CA)

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.
