| partners | | | Chris wanted some AEG and I haven't hike Wrightson for 8 years so this was good. We met Brian on the way to the trailhead and got started in the cool temps. There was plenty of shade on the trail and a breeze so I thought I might need a jacket but the sun higher up kept it pleasant. Brian likes the uphill and he cruised ahead as the air got thinner and the trail got steeper. Gardener Canyon trail was a nice steady incline so I knew I could cruise on the hike down. The final push to the summit had me light headed or it could have mushrooms. We stopped on the peak to refuel and it got a little crowded while we were there. The hike down was peaceful and I saw two horse riders who said they did a loop up Cave trail and back down Gardener Canyon trail. It warmed up on the hike down but the breeze and shade kept me cool. |
