Sunshine

This post is for a hike that took place on July 15th. I did the Curley and Tanner Peak Combo with my friend, Adam. We took two vehicles and dropped one off at the Tanner Peak Trailhead. We then drove up Oak Creek Grade to the East Bear Trailhead and hiked the East Bear Gulch Trail to Curley Peak. From Curley Peak, we hiked the Tanner Trail over to Tanner Peak. From the top of Tanner Peak, it was at least 6.5 miles of downhill hiking to the car. That was the worst part of the hike because of loose rocks and the sun exposure. Anyway, here are the pictures.
