We hiked up from Grove Creek TH up to the bench. Everything I had read about the Southwest Ridge being a beast was true. We scrambled on all fours up half of it and bushwacked the other half. Made it to the ridgetop in about 3 hours. Ridgetop was completely overgrown with vegetation. Very thick. Lots of prickly pokeys and stickers. Do not wear shorts on this hike like I did. Stuck to the ridge and summited both Mahogany and North Mahogany. Took the Timpanooeke Road down to the campground. Didn't expect it to be very far. It is very far. We were two hours late and our shuttle driver was freaking out.
