First summit of Turtlehead and hike led by Ed Forkos, my first hike with him. He led us up a class 2/3 gully to the ridge just below the peak. Fun day with a detour towards Calico Tanks on the return through an interesting canyon.

Ed is awesome. He found routes to these peaks back in the day and named quite a few of them.
