Afternoon Trail Run

Mee & Knowles Canyon

Mee Canyon TH Commute

Berthoud Ridge Traverse, a high-alpine loop on the mountain ridge starting and ending at Berthoud Pass in Colorado. Over the course of 68k and 4’700m elevation gain, connecting 10 peaks between 3‘800 and 4‘200m.

I spent a bit over 16 hours full of views, hurt, and gummybears to complete the route. Most aspects of my plan (gear, fuel, pace) worked out. Parnassus, Bard, and especially the final climb from Empire back up to Mt. Flora took big bites out of me.

The weather played nicely for most of the day with mild rain for a brief period in the afternoon and a very short hailstorm right at the end of the day.

All in all, a hard and long day experiencing this fantastic mountain range.
