"Ski tour to summit of Red Mountain Number 3. Great pow down Champion. Altitude was hitting me hard all day, my heart was pounding in my chest all day. Resting up for a bigger objective tomorrow." — scott • Mar 27, 2023

"Black joined me this morning on a bluebird early spring day. 4" of powder on top of a good frozen trench. Micros door to door. Left at 8:15 and summited at 9am. Nearly calm and mid 20s at the summit with blue skies! Returned to car at 9:40." — garyogden • Mar 27, 2023

Today, I was expecting an unchallenging road walk followed by a short but steep push up the mountain. Those expectations went out the window after finding out that Holts Run Road is a dead-end street that abruptly ends less than 0.5 miles from its southern intersection with Route 280. The online mapping services that show Holts Run being a continuous road are WRONG! It's also worth mentioning that the northern entrance is blocked by a gate. I don't know if this is seasonal or not. Not wanting to drive back and forth, I opted to park at the southern dead-end and approach 1,938 from there. Bushwhacking to the base of the mountain was an exercise in suckitude.
