After completing Lassen the previous week, I was stoked on finishing off another incomplete project -- Mount Tallac! The last time I was on Mount Tallac the weather was incredible but we turned around thinking the avalanche risk was too high. I think it was the right decision last time given our lack of experience. This time Melanie, Christoph and me were quite motivated to summit it. We were initially debating where to go -- Shasta, Lassen or somewhere in Yosemite but ended up deciding to do a day trip to Tallac. Visibility was quite poor through out the route the trip. The total trip length was 6.44 mi which we covered in approximately 6.5 hours with 3500 elevating gain.
