Little did we know...  Sucess!

An absolutely beautiful summit. The picture of the Belford ridge behind you with the tiny trail winding along is sweet. Little did we know that this was one of our last moments of normalcy (went over to Mt. Waverly after since building clouds were not going to allow us to return over Belford/Oxford for Missouri)...Descent down Waverly gulch was, um, "great"! Isn't it fun when you can say you just created a route, totally blew up your knees (was that 4,000 ft of messy rock gully descent??? Yep.), got almost flash flooded, got hailed upon, fell in prickers (Charlie), cut up your hands and elbows (Nick), crossed a river and some beaver ponds, then walked a death march back to the car on the road for 2 miles for a total of almost 14 miles for the day??? Yeah...that's "good times"...as the DTMH would say...Only tolerable due to awesome hiking partners. Otherwise would have been almost broken by it.

Belford and Oxford from Missouri Gulch  Sucess!

I meet the best people hiking. My buddy and I happened upon two great guys at our chosen campsite, and hiked with them all day. The brought excellent snacks, Irish whiskey for the summit toast, and plenty of sophomoric jokes. Thank goodness for oxygen deprivation!

Missouri Gulch TH, Ascend Belford W Slopes to Oxford W Ridge  Sucess!

Met a young girl on the summit who had hiked in jeans. All the other climbers on the peak voted to give her extra credit for that!

From Belford  Sucess!

Descended Belford Gulch. We found the remnants of an old miners trail just below timberline which we followed as best as we could for the descent.

did all three that day, Belford, Oxford, Missouri. That last hump back over Belford was HARD. But I still wish I was 19 again. So much energy back then!
