Matterhorn Peak from Twin Lakes, via Horse Creek Pass - Hoover Wilderness

Like there is a Paris in Texas, or a Berlin in Vermont, there is a Matterhorn Peak in Sierra Nevada. It raises to 3730m, and can be hiked on its normal route from Twin Lakes (2160m), close to Bridgeport CA. This hike was done on May 14th 2021, in spring conditions. The snow was generally hard, with some soft patches from the Horse Creek Pass up. Some soft and unstable scree slowed me down on the final climb from the pass. The ascent is long, with high elevation gain (~1600m). It took me 6.5 h to climb and 4h to descend. Date: May 14th, 2021 Equipment: ski poles, boots (no need for specialized snow equipment) Music: Mogwai - Friend of the night --- 1. 0:00 - Departure from Twin Lakes 2. 1:07 - Upper Horse Creek Valley 3. 1.49 - Horse Creek Pass 4. 2:41 - Matterhorn Peak 5. 4:29 - Descending from the peak 6. 4:54 - Final Creek
