Pfeifferhorn: 1:42 summit / 2:57 total (part deux)

Evening run back up the Pfeifferhorn (I get cooler every time I say "Pfeifferhorn").This time summit via Red Pine lake. Ran it hard including small diversion to Upper Red Pine Lake, then up the ridge and summit. I finally found where the trail leads up to the ridge from Red Pine lake so I won't have to rock-hop and scramble as much. I think I can go sub 1:30 next time.

Lots of smoke, eyes and lungs burning from fire out west. Very lonely run...nobody up top and only 1-2 in between (I like it that way).

Didn't bring my headlamp and ran out of daylight 1/2 way down. Fortunately had Flashlight App on my phone which helped immensely. I really should be smarter about such things...no shirt, no light, solo evening run--duh.

Love this place!

Sugarloaf 11,051 (from Alta)

Was going to do Pfeifferhorn again but ran out of daylight. Decided to grab another peak. Debated between Baldy and Sugarloaf but since I just did baldy at the Speedgoat and had never done Sugarloaf...Sugarloaf won.

Great short run/hike up to the top of Sugarloaf lift at Alta...incredible views, blah...blah...blah.

just a cool lookin' tree stump

Sugarloaf Summit

View north from Summit--can't help thinking about Wasatch (up and down...up and down).

Great evening run up in the foothills. Evening summer rain shower and fast fluid legs made this a special run.

8 hours of trail work up Lamb's Canyon in order to complete Wasatch application. Nice to spend time swapping stories with other ultra guys including 15 time finisher and past winner Lee __?___. Tough work but good conversation.

Evening run up the face of Big Bald mountain (utah county--Timp). First time up the face, over 3,000 ft elevation gain in 2 miles--most of that in 1 mile. Tough hike up and race down to beat the dark. Amazing sunset up top as I chased three false summits eventually making it to the top. Ran into rattlesnake near bottom--too dark to see it but heard it close. Hate that.
