So if I believe my Garmin this should have been way easier than it felt. It is somewhere around 7600’ and 15 miles. Looks like Bob is the only other person from Haz to do it. Even 14ers oddly just has the Oxford via Belford, but not all three. Maybe it’s some kind of stupid 14 er rule that makes you have to do Missouri separate? I Summited Belford twice planning to go back to the junction, but then noticed the elkhead connector by the trail going to Oxford connects south as well as north and could clearly see the trail going up Missouri. So I went that way. I’m glad I did it this way shorter loop etc., but also because the Elkhead trail sucks. It’s flooded in the basin and rocky. |
