Wright Mountain
Pine Mountain #1

Notes:

Pine Moutain is really a big mountain.  I definitely underestimated it.

The "Other Devil's Backbone" turned out to be a bigger problem than
I expected.  Never again will I attempt this when there is snow/ice
around.  One slip and your in big trouble.  If there is snow/ice you
will definitely need crampons and an ice axe.

The Acorn trail is a rather nice trail but definitely wears your down.
It's also rather annoying that you have to park 3/4 of a mile (and 
500' of elevation) from the trailhead.  Why don't they just open up
that gate so you can park up at the trailhead?
