This is Grizzly Peak. Supposed to park on the side of HW at Ripple Rock Creek, but I couldn't due to too much snow on the road. So I was force to try from North side.

I was hoping I could go around the cliff band from North side just like South side, but it was too steep. So I decided to practice scramble. Find 2 spots on the cliff.
