Rick's Peak - L2

There is more to the Mt Charleston area than the standard peaks and standard routes. On this adventure we will find two parallel gullies with cool, clear flowing spring water.

From the start to the peak, we will enjoy fantastic scenery / views.

Safety is the first priority of our hikes. Therefore, all hikers in our group, including another leader who joins us, will stay behind the leader and in front of the sweeper. Group Hiking: Stay with the group behind the leader. If you don’t want to stay with us, you can always go hiking on your own, though it’s not recommended. Don’t run ahead. If you start to get too far behind, shout ahead before you’re out of range for someone to hear you. I always endeavor to keep track of everyone’s progress, but ultimately, it’s your responsibility to communicate what you need.
