Longest Recorded Alpine Ridge Traverse
Posted: Sat Sep 30, 2017 8:21 am
A new report, Convoluted Bliss, is up on https://peaksforfreaks.blogspot.com. Eight days of scrambling, climbing, and hiking in the high country of Yosemite resulted in successful completion of the longest recorded alpine ridge traverse in the United States. An in depth report on a traverse of the peaks encircling the Merced River drainage (Cathedral Range, Isberg Divide, and Clark Range) is posted by Eric Su here: https://peaksforfreaks.blogspot.com/2017/08/convoluted-bliss.html
This distance felt about ideal by the end given no zero days, but
if you prefer a longer adventure, masochists will spot ways more peaks could be added to lengthen the trip.
I wonder what else similar and manageable in the Sierra is being mapped out with serious consideration in mind. More adventures await!
