"Spent time at Red Rocks Canyon to kill the morning hours while the wife worked at a WeWork in Vegas. A couple of easy walks- the Moenkopi trail and the Keystone Thrust trail.

On the way back I had to do the Hogback as it was right there beckoning a visitor.

Once at the main ridge, we headed east along the ridge until we were at a place just south of El Bastardo. The overhung cliff bands prevented a direct ascent, so we traversed north below the cliffs, losing altitude until we found a break that we could ascend. We climbed up through the cliffs and then headed south, back to the summit. Once there, we heard someone yelling and noticed a lone figure on the ridge we were on previously. This is not a place that normal people go; my only guess is that he saw us going up in the beginning and decided to try to follow. Either way, he turned back.
We descended down the EXTREMELY steep and loose gully just east of the summit. We had to descend one at a time in stages to avoid setting rocks loose on each other. Once we got down to the bend in the gully, there was a big dryfall that..." — Kevin • Feb 3, 2018
