What an adventure today! It all started with a 5 mile drive up an off road vehicle road followed by another 6.5 miles hiking up the same road trying to avoid motorcycles, 4×4 trucks, bicycles and tractors in the misty fog! Finally made it to the summit above the clouds with views of more clouds… the clouds never cleared and became a dense fog all the way back down to the Trailhead, what a challenging day! …… What will we do to get that last peak? I did it! All 12 done! I found that every peak has its own challenge and I accepted every challenge ????
Hi, congrats on bagging the unicorn, Santiago Peak! I see you started at Maple Springs. So you take that all the way until it meets with the Main Divide? Did you bag Modjeska also?
I mapped out the route on All Trails: https://www.alltrails.com/explore/map/map–58315
Please let me know if this is the route you took and if so how was that 23 miles? I want to knock it very soon; hopefully this Sunday.
Your help will be much appreciated!
