This is really nice. I've been eyeing this one for awhile. I actually want to extra credit it all the way to Hoosier Pass though, over Fletcher, Drift, Wheeler, and Northstar. This would be a 2-3 day trip with bivies though.
Thanks! The _full_ traverse would be interesting, but the Atlantic-Fletcher ridge looks pretty exciting. IIRC, it goes at 5.7. I'd rather tackle that segment as a one-day.
This is a nice page and a great traverse, although it seems quite suburban with the ski area, I-70 and all.
There is a typo on the Mt. Royal part of the description, though. If you arrive at the saddle south of its summit, you would hike north not south to its summit, then turn south to go to Peak 1.
