The route up the ski trails is easy to follow. Just follow the Wheeler chair lift from the Base Lodge and hook onto a well defined narrow dirt path up the Grey Ghost and Tri-Color ski trails.
Easy out and back hike over Saddleback to The Horn. The clouds lifted as we hiked along the ridge. Pretty awesome open alpine walk between peaks! A nice ending to my NE 111 finish :) |
