Hiked to about 3500' on the Sugarloaf trail and bushwhacked over to Castle East Peak. Found a very nice herd path almost the entire way over. From East Peak to West Peak, found only intermittent paths, but the going was mostly good anyway. Stay to the north side of the ridge as it seemed less thick there. On the return, bushwhacked almost all the way to the top of Sugarloaf, hitting the trail just below the summit. |
