He won't answer anymore

This has been on my peak list for a while, and I figured that today was as good a day as any to do it.
We drove in from the south, following the @rwstorm driving track. My hiking buddy drove his CRV, and I would not go in anything less than something like that.
We followed a wash and drainage up to a ridgeline, and then took the ridgeline to the peak. This seems to be the way that most people hike it.
I thought that this was a tough, physically demanding hike. I'm not a big fan of boulder filled washes, which is what this one was for a mile or so. At one point we climbed up boulders and rocks to the tune of over 1,700 feet of elevation gain in one mile.
I was glad to get this one done, but I doubt if I will do an encore on it. |
