Partner for Grand Traverse 7/2-7/4

Post by barnsy12 »

Looking for a partner to do the Grand Traverse in the Gore Range any day between 7/2 and 7/4. I'm a moderately fast hiker, a 14er finisher, and have done a handful of Gore scrambles.

I could do the Grand Traverse on either 7/3 or 7/4. I’ve done a number of other class 3/4 scrambles on 14ers and other IPWA peaks.

Grand Traverse has been on my radar for a while and I'll probably have some availability that weekend. Also a 14er finisher and experienced scrambler. Shoot me a message.

You're going to love this ridge! I did it MANY years ago and it still ranks as one of the best ridges in Colorado I've done. 8)
And btw, if you hit all the gendarmes, the hardest scrambling we encountered was 4+, maybe 5.0.
