11.17.2020~Calico Hills 6 peak Ridge Traverse loop South to North. 7.2 miles, 2,700’ gain, 4:49hrs. Epic accomplishment on this difficult route that not many can do unless they are led. Complicated route finding and tons of relentless scrambling and class 3 climbing. Not sure many women (if any) have done this solo. Took 3 days of recon to figure out the 1st section and I still got a bit hung up today. Super proud of myself. 4:49hrs. Got to the last peak in 3:39 hrs. Very hot on the sandstone today. I sweat a lot. I consumed 2 liters of fluid, 2 slices of cauliflower crust pizza and one piece of healthy cake. Weather person promised clouds and breezes but they never materialized. Peaks included~Calico hills South, Calico Hills 1, Red Book, Calico Tanks East and West and Red Cap (aka Turtlehead Jr.)
