Re: El diente partners
^^ Tom, did you use the Kilpacker approach? If so, has the CFI crew re-routed any major portions of the Kilpacker trail below treeline yet? I've seen the plan for the new trail and wondering about progress.

As of three weeks ago, the trail had yet to be rerouted.

You cannot stay on the summit forever; you have to come down again. So why bother in the first place? Just this: What is above knows what is below, but what is below does not know what is above. One climbs, one sees. One descends, one sees no longer, but one has seen. There is an art of conducting oneself in the lower regions by the memory of what one saw higher up. When one can no longer see, one can at least still know. - Rene Daumal

Re: El diente partners
Hey Bill Hope All Is Well. So Far The Trail Is Still The Same Route But Better Conditions. We Could See They Were Marking Things But Not Yet Changed. One Spot Through The Bushes To The Last Steep Tree Section Has A Small Carin Still To Show You To Go Right. If You Do It Takes You To The First Talus And Steep Trees where They Are Fixing The Trail To Make It More Obvious. Someone Else Led In The Morning And Went Left It Takes You Up The Drainage On Grey Scree. He Just Missed The CarinI.
