| no partners | | This was my first real trip into the Goldfields (minus a short trip to the Horns of Dilemma in 2018). About 20 minutes in, I started asking myself why I hadn't come out here more often! The first section with a "trail" must have put me in a good mood. The "trail" quickly vanished and I felt that mix of excitement and anxiety that off-trail hikes provide.
In addition to Razorback, we decided to get Pedestal Arch and Triple Arch.
This hike is almost perfect. A mix off trail and off-trail, solitude, beautiful canyons, water tanks, a fantastic peak, and two magnificent arches. The only thing missing is a nice solar panel . Razorback was surprisingly easy to summit and the route finding was as straightforward as something like this can be (thanks hikerdw and dixieflyer for your gps routes).
Triple Arch was the highlight of the trip. Never seen anything like that before. Golden Dome is now on the to-do list. Happy to be in the Goldfields. |
