I did Roads End to Simpson Meadow and back over Granite in 26 hours or so once. I did Roads End to the JMT and then to Simpson and up out over Granite, but I got sick and had to bivy an hour from the pass. The climb out of Simpson sucked real bad both times, but the 1st time I ran out of water and the second time I was sick. The actual climb didn't seem that bad though. There's a peak I've wanted to do in that area for years with Da Moose, but we never could get our schedules to mesh. The whole area is incredible................................DUG
