I had forgot about the little shelf section during the class three portion and had us turn around there and go back down the chute, I am not sure what I was thinking. It just did not ring a bell and I was worried we might be climbing to some false summit, or dead end. The narrow ledge and second steep chute just looked more sketchy than I could remember, so I thought it was not the route. I thought maybe we went up a drainage too soon. It then all came back to me and I realized that was the way, but by this point I did not want to backtrack and do that same steep chute over again, so I just committed us to the class four route.
The tricky part along the class four route that I mentioned in my first triplog is still tricky. CJ actually got up it first and then I barely followed. From there it was still some route finding for me, but I got us to the top. We did not stick around and enjoy the summit much, because we wanted to make up for lost time. Speaking of time, we spent more time than we should have looking for the top of the class three route on the way down. I was just off, Coronado won today, too much time following and chatting last time, did not retain anything apparently. I probably should have taken a few minutes to at least read my old triplog before we tackled this one. Nevertheless, we still both enjoyed the summit and we relished the fun little challenge in the heat today.
