| no partners | | After completing Smith Peak around 1:00pm, Matt and I decided to go for Harcuvar Peak (since they're in the same range) as long as we could find the trailhead. We pieced together directions from three different sources and still had problems finding the right way to go. Two and a half hours later we reached what would be our starting point. Luckily we ran into a rancher that granted us permission to cross his land that led to the wash where we began.
It was 3:30pm on the coldest day of the year, and we had an off-trail hike with unknown mileage in order to bag this peak. I never had that gut feeling that we weren't going to pull it off though. Everything just seemed to be falling into place. And it did. This turned into one of those adrenaline pumping treks in a race against the clock before the sun went down. A little after 6:00pm we reached the car with no daylight to spare.
This is an awesome peak well worth the hiking effort, I wish we would have had more time at the top. The real challenge is getting there. |
