Early on the Basin was cool and cloudy. Agassiz was intermittently obscured and I never saw Humphreys. Climbing up the upper reaches of the Inner Basin I could see my breath it was so cool. What a change from the 100+ temps in southern AZ. I gotta say, Flagstaff is so much fun.
I wonder if the Weatherford Trail isn't the best route in the Kachina Wilderness. My short leg on it was just astounding, and I wandered along it a little yesterday from the Humphrey Saddle. It just begs for a huge hike...and I will be back.
Well, this concludes my summer of grueling climbs and peakbagging. Every trip has been a blast. They have also all led up to next Saturday, when I make my first attempt at Mt. Whitney on a 22 mile, one day climb. I hope I make it. More importantly, the training I have done around the state, and especially in my beloved Sky Islands has only strengthened the notion that our state of Arizona is the best. Every day here is a treat. Wish me luck  |
