10.6.18. 18.5 mile, 4,800’ vert gain, Point to Point, Rainbow Wilderness Escarpment, Limestone Crest Tour. Mountain Springs to Willow Springs, Red Rock.
Today I experienced one of the best adventures of my life. I’m so proud of myself and grateful I have a strong body that allows me to experience such things. I can’t even believe I live in such a beautiful place. Thank you Chris for the invite. I started alone in the dark an hour and 11 min before Chris and his Friends so I didn’t feel the pressure of a fast pace.
The sunrise made me weep. The route was rough, rugged, scenic and fun with the navigational challenges that I love. I Bagged at least 4 peaks along the way too. 10.5 miles after I started they caught up with me and I did the rest of the miles with the group.
Thank you Chris and Harlan for all the info on how to follow the ridge without getting lost.
I’m sad it’s over.
