13.1 mile half marathon from Peralta Th, Fremont Saddle, Robbers Roost, Peak 5057, Ridgeline, Peak 5024 and finishing up at Mining Camp TH. Earn your 13.1 sticker the hard way. 6:30am meet up at Mining Camp. Figure out shuttle arrangement from there.

wish it was another weekend as I am doing Skull Cave the same weekend

I saw that...18 miles...gonna make my ridgeline look like a walk around the block.

But I would love to do them both

@WidowmakerI did skeleton cave one day and then the Ridgeline the next

One word...Cloning!

Glad its not this weekend with highs projected in the 80's. Early forecast calls for a 20 degree drop. Ridgeline in the 60's sounds much better.

@Rick Vincent
I am in

Good. I've got a couple more non-HAZers committed also. Also, an offer by a HAZ'er to help with shuttle. 6:30am meet up at Mining Camp.

I heard BobP did skeleton cave one day and then Ridge line the next and on day three he tackled Hayden Butte! :worthy:

And no orange arrows to distract us on our way down Siphon.

Looks like total group size will be 4 - 6. Fellow HAZer, Trishness, has kindly offered a shuttle ride from Mining Camp to Peralta. If we end up with 6 or more, then we will have to take a second vehicle over to Peralta. Looking forward to Ridgeline. See you at Mining Camp TH on Sunday, 6:30am.

Sounds great, I am looking forward to this hike

I had a hike planned from Carney/Peralta area on 02-23 anyway so I have no problem hauling you guys over there. Look for my gold X-terra at Mining Camp 6:15-6:30 AM

Trish

Leaving the house with my neighbor at 6am from Signal butte & Elliot. About 20 mins to mining camp. See you there.

See you at Mining Camp at 6:30am

Well so I was late. Some guy there said I missed you by a few mintues. So I decide just to go and do Black Top Mesa.
I hope you guys had a great hike.

So sorry we missed you. A group of three hikers plus our awesome shuttle driver, Trish, showed up at 6:20 and held position at Mining Camp for 20 minutes. Looking back, I should have traded phone numbers with you just to check status. Part of me felt like we were jumping the gun at 6:40, but then I've also been left standing at trailheads for 30 minutes waiting for someone who never shows up.

Lesson learned on this one. Always exchange phone numbers with committed hike partners. We certainly would have waited a few more minutes if we knew for sure something hadn't come up and you were indeed on your way.

Again, my sincerest apology for missing you.

I learned that lesson the hard way too. That and if HAZ is down and you haven't exchanged personal emails either.
