From the Silver Creek trailhead parking area, follow the trail northeast up a hill and into the forest. Near 11,100', leave the trees and continue on the trail as it parallels Silver Creek on your right -
1. Continue northeast along Silver Creek (
2) to 12,200', where the terrain opens up and the trail curves to the south -
3 and
4. Follow the trail to the end of the basin and ascend a slope (
5) to reach the 13,000-foot saddle between Redcloud and Point 13,561' -
6.
Taken from 14er Redcloud Peak,
7 shows the remaining route. With Unnamed 13,832' in view to the east, begin hiking east up a ridge toward some unnamed points -
8. At a small saddle just prior to Point 13,561', avoid the top of this point by hike east across its talus-covered south side -
9 and
10. Near 13,400', reach another saddle and follow a trail southeast below another point (
11 and
12) to reach the upper west slopes of Unnamed 13,832' -
13. Continue a bit farther on the trail and turn left to gain the summit -
14 and
15.
On top of 13,822', you're nearly 5 miles into your hike and 13,811' is roughly 1.5 miles away. To continue to 13,811', drop southeast from 13,832' (
16) and descend to the saddle between 13,832' and Point 13,632' -
17. You can go over this point but it's easier to walk southeast and swing east around the point. Once you're on the east side of this point (
18), drop to the saddle between Point 13,632' and Unnamed 13,811' -
19. Hike northeast along the ridge to reach the summit of 13,811' -
20,
21 and
22.
