The peak registry and a wooden Freel Peak (10881) sign. There were over a dozen notebooks in the ammo box. The oldest I found was a Pete Yamagata lab book from 2001. This is the highest point in the Tahoe area.

There was one large snowfield between the two peaks. The snow was extremely slushy in the 80+ degree weather and probably won't be around much longer.
