It was the third annual visit to Pinnacles for me and Amber, a different season again, this time a very warm and dry early November. And a partial motivation to distance from society as a potentially disastrous election result was about to commence. This report will economically cover two days at Pinnacles, because there is really not much new territory covered different from the 2018 or 2019 visits. The "problem" with Pinnacles is you're either doing class one trail walking, or minimum class 4 climbing (or beyond my abilities, whatever that is,) if you want to get to most of the "peaks."

OK, actually, there really isn't too much going on here that wasn't covered in the PINNACLES 2018 report, and especially the detailed PINNACLES 2019 report, so I'll leave you to check those out, so I don't have to write about basically the same hikes all over again! I'm feeling lazy. See ya!
