| partners | | Went for a Pusch Ridge blowout hike with Jeff MacE. I've been to the Window via Ventana Canyon. I've climbed Esperero to the saddle dividing Esperero from Montrose Canyons. I had never been on the connector route between the two. I didn't know what I was missing. This section of trail is hard to explain, other than to say it just flat out rocks.
The Esperero, in my opinion, is the hardest trail in Pusch Ridge. Of course, that also makes it the most fun and rewarding. Cardiac Gap is nice, Geronimo Meadows are better and Bridal Veil Falls are sweet (pictures definitely do not do justice here). They all pale in comparison to the ridgeline though.
We lucked out with the most perfect weather you could ask for on this kind of hike. The HAZ hiking gods smiled on us this day. |
