I had been mulling over doing one of the 14ers in the Wilson Group out of the Navajo Lake basin area since June, but forest closures, Montana, weather and hiking with dogs kept getting in the way. However, I was not be denied this weekend and in typical FOTG fashion, instead of settling for one 14er, I decided to go for all three.

This hike/climb was suppose to start very early Saturday morning, but some crazy storm patterns for this time of the year nixed those plans. I arrived to the trailhead at 1:30 a.m. and after a quick nap was making final packing preparations at 3:00 a.m. However, after only a few minutes into packing, I began to hear some low rumbles of thunder and started to observe some lightning. I decided I could wait an hour or so to see if things cleared up, but the showers intensified, as did the early morning storm conditions. Thinking it would not be very prudent to start a 14er in a thunderstorm, I nixed Plan A for the day and headed for some lower key, lower elevation hikes for the day. My attempt at the Wilson Group would now have to occur on Sunday.

I set off for my assault on the Wilson Group at 3:58 a.m. Sunday morning. Ideally, I would have liked to have left the trailhead by 3:30 a.m., but there was a zero percent chance of rain and storms on Sunday and I did not want to have to start the off trail portion of the climb with a headlamp. The hike up to the turn off for the North Buttress Route was dark and uneventful. It took me a few minutes to verify I was in the right spot to begin the ascent, as at first I simply could not believe it was the route due to its rugged nature and extremely steep nature. It was definitely an intimidating route to look at in person and a little different than what I had imagined while drawing it up in route manager. To say the route is steep may not even adequately describe it. For a frame of reference, if you include a couple tenths of a mile on the trail as you climb out of Navajo Lake, you gain 1800 feet in the first mile of the climb. The route is pretty much class three the entire way with a mixture of class four depending on lines you take and obstacles you choose to go up and over, or around. There is a mixture of boulder fields, loose scree and slab rock along the way. A helmet is a must for this route. I took a couple of poor lines and less direct routes along the way, but nevertheless I was standing on the summit by about 9:00 a.m., which was a lot later than I had anticipated to be honest. From the summit of El Diente, I began the iconic El Diente-Wilson traverse. This traverse is one of the "Four Great Traverses" of Colorado and is certainly a challenge that should not be attempted by those without a somewhat higher level of mountaineering, climbing, or route finding abilities. Strong nerves and endurance would also come in handy for the completion of these two summits and the traverse. However, that being said, I did not find the traverse overly difficult and found it to be pretty fun, challenging yes, but also fun. But it was clear from observing other climbers and teams that some found it to be a pretty difficult and taxing endeavor. One team in particular, was roping in on some of the short climbs and along the narrowest points of the ridgeline. To each their own, but I think most would agree that roping in might be a little overkill. A helmet, a good sense of route finding and a little bit of climbing ability should be enough for most.

Mount Wilson required a couple of more difficult, but manageable class four maneuvers to reach the summit, but nothing that those with a little scrambling experience can't handle. The views looking back on the ridgeline traverse were spectacular and I found myself feeling very satisfied with my little accomplishment. As is the case with most 14ers, the summit was too cold and windy to enjoy for long and I quickly descended. I took what they refer to as the Mount Wilson Standard route down, but that was the one route I did not research extensively and it became more of an improvised beeline descent to trail. Once I hit the trail, it became evident that Wilson Peak would have to wait for another time. I dwelled over missing the third peak more than I should of and it was a bit of a bummer, but I was already looking at a very late return to Phoenix and I did not want to add to that anymore than I had to.

Once I hit the trail, the hike back was uneventful and pretty quick. A good amount of people out on the trails. I took a little pleasure in telling a couple of hikers what I had did when prompted by the helmet attached to my pack, they asked< "What did you do today?"

Side Note

Route Scout went a little Route Scout on me and straight lined the track along the North Buttress Route and along the ridgeline to Wilson and for most of my descent, so some of the track was hand drawn by me. I added an additional .25 to make up for the straight line along the N.B.

This was our second hike in the Lizard Peak Wilderness. We got a later start than what I wanted and I was a little worried about the clouds when we started, but we were able to make it to the lake and back right before some pretty nasty weather hit the area.

The Trail to Navajo Lake is scenic and in excellent shape. There are some nice meadow sections with big views towards some of the areas dominating peaks around Navajo Lake. At two miles there is a spur trail that takes you to two waterfalls where the West Dolores River and Kilpacker Creek meet. I thought the falls were well worth the little detour and one of the highlights of the hike. The climb to the lake got steep at times, but the trail remained in great shape and relatively well maintained. The lake would have probably been more scenic for me had I not just came from chasing pristine lakes in Montana and Idaho, but I still thought it was nice. I imagine it is a lot more scenic when the sun is not in your face and there is a little snow around the lake. From the lake, we returned the way we came and finished to a little thunder. The skies would really open up later in the afternoon.

Backpacking in the Lizard Peak Wilderness. Steep and tough trails, but with amazing views.

Day 1: Up Cross Mountain Trail, to Lizard Head trail, and down Bilk Creek trail and along Wilson Mesa. 16 miles. Bilk Creek trail is amazing and probably was the best part of the entire trip. Wilson Mesa is extremely mucky due to allowing motorcycles during the summer, which tear it up.

Day 2: Climb to Rock of Ages TH, then up Rock of Ages to Elk Ridge trail and onto Navajo Lake. I had high hopes for this day, but the people who routed the Elk Ridge trail should be shot. The trail adds a ton of unnecessary elevation for what would otherwise be a nice trail along the treeline. Navajo lake is nice but it gets very cold as the sun sets and the cold air tries to leave the basin.

Day 3: Climbed Wilson Peak, met several people who almost died sliding off the mountain on snow. With being really close the the peak, so that I could probably hit it with a rock, encountered an icy patch, and turned around about 100 yards from the true summit, the trail routing to Wilson Peak is a complete disaster, for being a popular 14K'er.

Day 4: Down Navajo Lake Trail and Kilpacker and Groundhog Stock trail back to the vehicle.

This is a decent loop that packs a lot of elevation. The horrible trail routing makes the trails way too steep, you can observe many places where people and horses are sliding/falling and probably horses are breaking their legs. It seems that the goal of the wilderness trail routers is to ensure every uphill section is at least 30% grade, especially when it is scree on hardpack. Why bother creating an extra switchback when you can simply discourage anyone from travelling the trail in the first place.

Except for Wilson Mesa, which is muddy and depressing, the wilderness is very nice and even dayhikers should find many of these trails accessible from nearby trailheads.

Colorado Fall Colours 2012

I'm in the habit of booking a quarterly "wilderness adventure" months in advance so I can work my schedule around the dates. After having my first Colorado Adventure into the San Juan Mountains this past summer (check out

[ photoset ] ), I snapped up the offer from one of my Phoenix Coyotes' season ticket partners to use his Colorado Cottage during the height of fall colours. With a 5-day weekend booked the end of September/beginning of October, I began researching primo fall colour photo ops weeks in advance (check out

[ Colorado Fall Colours 2012 (San Juan Mountains) ] ) narrowing down to 5 selected shots from various pro's and trying to figure out the exact location they captured their image.

Image #1 "Highway and Farm near Telluride" by Shane McDermott. Thanks to a tip from the photographer, I was able to confirm the location on Airport Road (aka Last Dollar Road) near Telluride and enter GPS coordinates into Google Maps (N 37.952726, W -107.877846). My "interpretation" certainly doesn't do Shane McDermott's wonderful image any justice, but I had fun doing the detective work trying to figure out the location (thanks also to Jake for the Google Maps tip!).

Image #2 "Hay Rolls near Sneffels Range" by Derek von Briesen (check out

https://www.pbase.com/sedonamemories/image/139539899 ). Thanks to a tip from HippyPunkPirate (aka Jake) and others, it turns out that this is an iconic view taken from the Double R L Ranch along Highway 62 near Ridgway. It took a Colorado resident to clue me in that Double R L Ranch, as in Ralph R. Lauren's ranch, is known to everyone in the Ridgeway/Telluride area. Take County Road 9 off of Highway 62 and spot the field near GPS coordinates I entered into Google Maps (N 38.118892, W -107.829008). My "interpretation" certainly doesn't do Derek von Brieson's stellar image any justice, but once again I had fun doing the detective work trying to figure out the location (thanks Jake for the Google tip - Google RRL Ranch images and see what you get...).

Image #3 "Aspen Stand and Fence near Sneffels Range" by Jason Hatfield. Hats off to Jason and his most informative eBook "A Photographer's Guide to Colorado's Fall Colors - the Best Locations & How to Photograph Them", 14 locations are in the San Juan Mountains! Take County Road 7 off of Highway 62 and spot the open field near GPS coordinates I entered into Google Maps (N 38deg 2' 58.42", W 107deg 48' 31.01"). My "interpretation" certainly doesn't do Jason Hatfield's awesome image any justice, but once again I had fun doing the detective work trying to figure out the location (thanks Jason for sharing your inside information - highly recommend if you are heading into the San Juan's to pick up Jason's bargain priced eBook.

Image #4 "Dallas Divide in the Sneffels Range" by Darren Kilgore. I found the "Dallas Divide" on the map and noted a Scenic View turnout along Highway 62 between Telluride and Ridgway. Taking a leap of faith, I entered GPS coordinates into Google Maps (N 37.952726, W -107.877846) and hoped for the best. Although my "interpretation" certainly doesn't do Darren Kilgore's splendid image any justice, I had fun exchanging thoughts with about 20 other photographers jamming the turnout along Highway 62 trying to capture an image in the waning afternoon light.

Image #5 "Wilson Mesa Property for Sale - $12,995,000" by unknown realtor (advertisement had photo of San Miguel Mountains reflecting off lake surrounded by flaming yellow aspens - unfortunately no internet link). Armed only with a real estate ad from a Telluride Homes magazine I picked up at a Telluride gas station during my July 2012 visit, I looked for various clues in the photo and the map and could only conclude that this had to be Woods Lake on Wilson Mesa. Taking another leap of faith, I entered GPS coordinates into Google Maps (N 37.952726, W -107.877846) and marked a route along Fall Creek Road that seemed to connect to Woods Lake. Although my "interpretation" doesn't justify the real estate asking price, I had fun meeting a photographer from Maryland (sorry, forgot your name!) also trying to capture the perfect reflection off the lake.

DAY #1 - Saturday 9/29 After a Friday airplane commute to and from our Diabetes division in Northridge CA, I headed on the road early Saturday to start a 5-day weekend with Lynn and the dogs at the Danzl Cottage along the Dolores River between Dolores CO and Telluride CO. Lynn packed everything we needed except some choice Colorado brews. Stopping at the Dolores Liquor Store, I picked up a 6-pack of Dark Lager by Durango Brewing Company (Durango CO) and 90 Shilling Ale by O'Dell Brewing Company (Fort Collins CO). I thought it was strange that none of the Dolores Brewery or Telluride Brewery beers were available here. Arriving at the Danzl Cottage with about an hour of daylight, I got the well pump primed and the hot water tank filled (while evacuating all the airlocks) and the electric heats plugged in and fired-up (low of 29degF forecast for tonight). With the cottage up and running, time to focus on tonight's BBQ dinner - burgs and dogs...
DAY #2 - Sunday 9/30 After rustling up breakfast of maple sausages and eggs on the BBQ, we loaded up the F-150 and headed along Hwy 145 and the Dolores River Valley towards Telluride. There were multiple stops along the way taking in the riot of colour. Hard to judge if we missed the peak, some trees were bare, some were still green, others where ablaze in yellows and golds. Arriving in Telluride, we headed up Airport Road to find "Image #1" location to re-create Shane McDermott's "Highway and Farm near Telluride". As we rounded the first bend to the north, it was found! Near the Telluride Airport, the road becomes Last Dollar Road (IMO - a fall colour "must" route). We found a roadside clearing onto a bench outcrop that made for a perfect lunch location - mountain views, fall colours, perfect temperatures! After a Tibber-mode flurry of photo stops, we popped out onto Hwy 62 and headed east towards County Road #9 and the Double RL Ranch. Hay rolling was in progress, but not in the field captured by Derek von Briesen in "Image #2". I did find another field with the hay rolls in situ to create my own composition. Next on the list was County Road #7 to recreate "Image #3" by Jason Hatfield. CO#7 has a number of choice locations noted in Jason Hatfield's eBook and I think I found them all. With the sun beginning to set, we left CO#7 and headed back to Telluride (also discovering the Dallas Divide scenic viewpoint on Hwy 62 and recreating "Image #4"). With an alpenglow on the peaks, had enough light to show Lynn Bridal Veil Falls and downtown Telluride. It must have been 10pm when we got back to the Danzl Cottage and fired up the BBQ for our evening meal in the glow of the full moon. There was a strange banshee screaming at the moon - a bobcat in heat?
Hike of the Day

Dolores River Trail (actually an abandoned bridge and section of old Hwy 145 near Rico CO) ~5 miles.
DAY #3 - Monday 10/1 Perfect weather in the forecast again as we headed to Durango and up the Million Dollar Highway to Silverton. Animas Forks Ghost Town was the objective of the day - thwarted by a misplaced boulder hitting my skid plate and damaging an airflow/sound barrier plate. Unable to do a field repair, we heading back to Silverton to the lone garage mechanic for miles around. We removed the off-road customized airflow/sound barrier plate and were on our way. Adjusting our plans, we headed north on Hwy 555 towards Mineral Creek and Kendal Camp Ground for lunch. Next up, the Red Mountain Mining Area followed by Ouray, Ridgeway, and another stop at the Dallas Divide (another "Image #4" recreation attempt). Our adjusted plans allowed us to tour Fall Creek Road and the Wilson Mesa area in search of Woods Lake. To my great surprise, there was ample signage to Woods Lake where I made numerous attempts at recreating "Image #5". With all 5 of my "pre-work" images now in the bag (or on the FLASH card), it was time to drive back to Danzl Cottage and a choice steak waiting to be BBQ'd...
Hike of the Day

Woods Lake Campground Trail ~5 miles.
DAY #4 - Tuesday 10/2 Today's agenda includes CR38/Township Route 535 (aka Dunton Road - IMO another Fall colour "must" route) and the Lizard Head Wilderness area. With multiple photo ops along the route, we decided to take a lunch break on top of Stoner Mesa via CR-M/FR875 (aka Stoner Mesa Road). I found a meadow/camp area on the top of Stoner Mesa surrounded by aspen stands on every side where we broke out the tailgating chairs and had lunch. IMO - Stoner Mesa Road had the BEST Fall colours of any route we had been on during our 5-day weekend. We had time to hike a few miles towards Navajo Lake from the Kilpacker TH and The Meadows. Great views of the San Miguel Mountains and the Lizard Head Wilderness area!
Hike of the Day

Kilpacker Trail ~5 miles (intersects with Navajo Lake Trail [ Navajo Lake Trail #635 ] ). Check out

Such an amazingly beautiful area! :y:

This alpine lake was actually the first leg/night of a 3-day backpacking loop around this cluster of mountains. :sweat:

I started at the Cross Mt TH and soon felt the affects of high altitude on my cardio as I contoured along the Groundhog trail thru thick forests & open meadows with majestic mountain in the distance. :sweat:

After briefly walking the FR535, hopped on the Kilpacker trail and started slowly climbing again thru some thick forests while taking a couple long altitude breaks along the way.

Eventually the Kilpacker trail dumps into the Navajo Lake trails and quickly climbs up to the super scenic alpine lake at 11,200ft. That last mile really kicked my rear! :sweat:

The lake was a great place to stay my first night, loads of snows on the peaks, sun setting thru the mountains, great tasting water, and marmots running thru the rocks. Due to lingering snow in the high passes & private property issues, I decided to loop around the mountain on the equally scenic Elk Creek trail with loads of sweeping views as it contoured above the treeline with about a dozen snowbanks & fields to traverse.

Eventually the Elk creek trail passes a mine and drops down an old mining road below the treeline and then i headed east on the Wilson Mesa trail thru the wet forest until I found an amazing lake to camp near on the NE side of Wilson Peak with of course great views of that 14K foot peak. :GB:

The next morning I was spooked by a momma Black bear and her cub twice coming within 100ft of my camp as I was packing up.

Afterwards I continued east dropping into Bilk Creek and taking the awe inspiring Lizard Head trail up and over the 12K foot pass while passing by many gushing waterfalls and of course the funky looking Lizard Head Peak with snowy Wilson & Gladstone Peaks looming up above. So flipping jaw dropping!

Having got my fill of Colorado goodness, I dropped down from the pass & back below the treeline and finally back to my car at Cross Mt TH to make the LONG drive back home... :zzz:

I certainly can't wait for my next Colorado trip next month! :y:

This had been on my wish list for over a year, so I had to do it. Plus it would help acclimate me for 14k foot country in a couple of days. Left Cortez mid morning, and made the drive into the San Miguel Mountains. Only saw a few others on this outstanding trail; one young lady had attempted a solo climb of Mount Wilson, but had turned back near the summit due to dangerous ice and snow. I felt like a complete amateur turd at that moment. Snapping photos like crazy along the way, I made it up to Navajo Lake by mid afternoon. Wow! A beautiful alpine lake, surrounded by mountains rising thousands of feet higher. My plans to hike farther were shot down by gathering thunderstorms, so I lingered at the lake awhile, taking it all in before heading back. After the hike I drove up to Lizard Head Pass to gawk at more insanely rugged peaks.

Days like this make me want to move to Colorado. But then I think about winter snow up there, and I have my doubts...

T'was a great trip!
