I just read a great trip report by Ze who says that this trip was harder than Big Iron. Good pictures too. 8)

Wow. That bushwhacking would drive me nuts. Good TR, and it made sense for you to go on ahead and bag the triplet - if you had waited, it sounds like you'd be 0 for 2, which would not have sat well with you. The rock climb looks like it would be kinda fun under other circumstances, but just another obstacle in that type of death march. Congrats - this doesn't sound like one that is real tempting to repeat very often.

Incidentally, how big are the three rocks on top? They are pretty impressive.

Howdy Ze :)

Congratulations you animal!!! I think you've been spending too much time with Steve and Fern (or visa versa) :lol: This hike is totally out of my league. Not only is it too technical and rigorous, I would have to wear a full suit of armor to protect my skin.

Miles of smiles,
