"5.7.24. Bridge Mtn #28 from Lovell Cyn~ Nearly 13 miles, 4,000’ gain in 5:20hr. Up top in 2:53hrs. From base of crack to summit in :20 min. I stepped aside to let some motorcyclists by on Rocky Gap road and landed next to a snake. I was so close to it my foot hopped within its body curls. I don’t think it was a rattler thank goodness since I had to hop around a few times near it to get my body to flee. I didn’t take a photo since I was freaked out. I was attacked by hornets the whole fucking time! I don’t remember experiencing so many in one outing!?! I eventually stopped running and freaking out about them because it was wearing me out. They seemed to hang out around my head less when I did that. Lots of small bugs too, trying to get in my ears so I kept my ears covered. Other than all that drama, it was spectacular as usual. With an 11am start. temps were warm with nary a breeze. I consumed (3) 16oz bottles of water, an applesauce packet and a banana. " — paula.raimondi • May 7, 2024
"TR and Condition report on Rocky Gap Road out of Willow Springs. My 56x up Bridge. I normally avoid this road unless required by expediency. I used to drive up here in a 2003 Subaru with 7 inches clearance, aided by the narrowness of that vehicle. Since then, one section has gotten better and two have gotten worse. The section bigRocksInRoad (right after 1st wash) and BadRedHill are worse. The OldBadSpot, where a stream sometimes crosses, is better. We saw several Pink Jeeps turn around at Park4NorthPeak at 2.4 miles up – they used to turn around below that.

"Finally did bridge and it was awesome
Solid friction scrambling and a nice spooky ledge after going over the bridge at the end
If you want yoga the easy way you can follow my track, but it seems like the fun way is up through pine creek canyon as evidenced by the comments in the register

"My 55th time up Bridge. This is a safe peak for me, when I am recovering from medical issues. I was about 5% slower than before COVID devastated me and scarred my lungs, but I wasn't trying to rush and looked for "experimental" route changes (see pictures).
I drove up to the turn-around at 5800 feet; one spot about 200 feet from the parking (in a depression/stream crossing) is a lot worse than a year back. 4x4 HC recommended." — hwstock • May 1, 2023
"4.27.23~Bridge Mtn #27. 6 miles, 3,000’ gain in 4:05hrs. Up in 2:15hrs, :18m on top, down in 1:32hrs. Laszlo generously offered me a ride to MM 2.25 on Rocky gap from Willow springs when I told him I planned on a Thursday Summit. We hiked the start together and he went on to nearby Sandstone north peak while I did a hard effort Bridge. He was able to snap a photo of me on the summit (from his summit) when I texted him at the top. Super warm with nary a breeze. " — paula.raimondi • Apr 27, 2023
"4.21.23~Bridge mtn #26. 13 miles, 4,000’ gain in 5:44hr RT. Out and back from Lovell Canyon. It’s been a while. 14 months to be exact. Didn’t feel as strong. I rarely do big gain or miles since I work full time. I was still relatively fast. Felt good to work hard in the mtns again. Stunt planes were zooming thru the canyons. It was Warm and sunny." — paula.raimondi • Apr 21, 2023
"Bridge Mtn 360° Route. High temp at the peak was 37°. A very cold May Day. We saw some snow flurries over Charleston and got drizzled on during descent. Great route & hike. Obviously the stats are way off on this track; should be about 4k ft elevation and around 10 miles. " — DudeAlmighty • May 11, 2022
"2.9.2022~Slay Wednesday! Bridge Mtn #25, 2nd time in 2 days. 11 miles, 4,000’ gain in 4:29 hrs Round Trip, including :06 mins on top and brief stops to take cactus needles out of my foot and to switch out water bottles. A Personal Record for me from Willow Springs Picnic Area. I didn’t make the pace too uncomfortable, just steady with minimal breaks. Comfortable weather. I consumed 1.5 liters of water and 300 calories along the way. I feel good about today. I was strong charging uphill. Surfing up and down the Aztec sandstone was divine. I didn’t want it to end. This Mountain is very special to me and draws me back and fills my mind with great memories. I use to hike to a ridge nearby and stare at it with fear & wonder. I never thought I’d have the courage to climb it. Now it’s my workout playground.

"2.7.2022~ Monday Slay. Bridge Mtn #24 from Willow Springs Picnic Area. 11 miles, 4,000’ gain in 5:05hrs Round Trip including :30 min break on top and a wrong turn on the final ascent ledge. I wasn’t paying attention, headed up too soon and ended up on a higher ledge (on the final ascent dome) It got narrow & extra creepy so I retreated and got down to the “normal” creepy ledge. There was some ice and snow along the way but none that made it unsafe. Great Day! I got my moneyz worth of fun for a 2$ Red Rock rez fee. I consumed 1.5 liters of water and one applesauce pouch.

"4.18.2021~Bridge Mtn #23 w/Frances! 12 miles, 4,200’ gain, 6:56hrs (including 1hr or so of breaks to enjoy the views) Frances asked if I’d join her for her 1st Bridge and I was honored to lead the way. She’s strong, fearless and fun to hike with. We were efficient and steady and took on the route with vigor. Great day! I haven’t been on top in a while. Felt good! " — paula.raimondi • Apr 18, 2021
