| no partners | | Finally made it! After several attempts from different directions, we decided the shortest route up was from Sabino Cyn tram stop 9. But, I wouldn't say it was easier because of the steep climbing after leaving Sabino Ck. There are no trails and no cairns. There was some hairy downclimbing and the buffle grass makes every step an adventure. Some parts were absolutely brutal. We were completely bushed afterwards. Took us just under 7 hours to do 5 miles but caught the next to last tram down canyon. If I try this one again, it won't be from this approach. We might try bknorby's track sometime but it looks just as hard.
On the plus side, there are spectacular views of Rattlesnake Pk., Thimble Pk, and everything in between. The final climb to the peak is extremely rewarding. Check out the pics. |
