For the long Labor Day weekend Randy and I decided to embark on an adventure to ID to gather yet
another state highpoint.
We pulled into the trailhead around 10:00p Friday night. We woke early and set out on the trail by 7:15a
local time. The route
was steep steep steep! You start at 7,200' and gain ~5,400' in under 3.5 miles! After 6 hours of
laboring up the steep incline and
easily handling "chicken out ridge" we reached the summit!

The start of the long, steep, descent back to the trailhead. We spent an hour at the summit and managed to reach the trailhead by 6:45p, making for an 11 hour day.
