A hot two-fer!
Cruised up to Icehouse Saddle for my first break, passing just a few folks along the way. After the break, I pushed on toward Ontario. Along the way, I kept a lookout for the use trail to Bighorn Peak, as I also wanted to climb it after Ontario. Enjoyed my PB&J atop an empty Ontario, resting and soaking in the views. It was warm, so I did not linger that long. Took the use trail over to Bighorn, then continued east for a bit before taking the steep trail back down toward the saddle. At the Columbine Spring, I filtered some water (I had enough for my descent, but that water was nice and cold). Runkeeper lost my track, grrr! But I did the 13 miles in 7:20. One more peak to go to complete all 12!
