Sierra Assault 2009
The 10th Annual Sierra Assault a hike to Round Top Lake near Woods Lake was very successful. Over 22 people (of almost all age groups) participated in the hike. This is a very good scenic and less strenuous hike if you don't make it to summit. 4 people from the group went up for summit. There was some confusion in the end ( look out for detailed post on it soon :-)). Enjoy the pictures.
