White Slate Mtn.

Climbing White Slate Mtn. (Peak 12,360)

Climb of Peak 12,360 in McGee Creek Canyon in the Eastern Sierra- total transparency - the original intention was to climb Red Slate Mountain but we lost the trail before Big McGee Lake due to snowpack, and we ultimately climbed what we thought was McGee Pass. Oops - so after climbing NOT McGee Pass we headed south on the ridge and climbed Peak 12,360 ft.
