Topo and GPS tracks for this 17mi, 3200ft gain outing out of the Old Donner Pass PCT trailhead near the Sugar Bowl ski resort. This was the first half of a 7 peak day that continued with Castle and Andersite on the north side of Hwy 80.
Anderson and Tinker were my 30th and 31st OGUL peaks.

The PCT trailhead south near the Sugar Bowl Academy. Mistakenly took the route left of the sign which led to a private residence. Backtracked and headed south on the correct trail.
